Banana, chocolate, and peanut butter – talk about serious cookie deliciousness!
Before baking, the Peanut Butter Cookie Bars have a thick, cookie dough consistency. You’ll want to push the dough evenly into the baking pan, pressing it into all of the corners. This helps the bars cook evenly and gives them a smooth, uniformed appearance.
Simply bake the bars and voila – you have a wonderfully tasty treat.
