No Bake Peanut Butter Bars

I spent the other day putting together missionary packages for some friends of mine who are serving missions for our church and one of them is gluten intolerant so I searched for some gluten free recipes on Pinterest and this is one of the first that popped up and it was delicious!

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

1 3/4 cup powdered sugar

10 tablespoons butter, softened, divided

1 1/2 cups peanut butter, creamy or crunchy

1 cup chocolate chips, milk or semi sweet

1  Lightly spray bottom only of 8 x 8″ or 9 x 9″ pan with cooking spray.

2  Beat together 5 tablespoons of butter, brown sugar and powdered sugar until smooth.  Beat in peanut butter until smooth.  Press into bottom of prepared pan.

3  Melt chocolate chips and remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in microwave for 1 minute.  Stir and continue to microwave in 30 second increments until melted and smooth.  Pour over peanut butter layer and spread evenly.

4  Chill until firm, about 3 hours or overnight.
