Reese's Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Bars

Reese's Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Bars | Addictive cookie bars with lots of Reeses in them!

I am so excited to share this recipe finally...I made it months ago. As always, it takes me forever to resize, add text, upload, and type up everything. And then now I'm only posting two recipes a week, if I get them done in time.

I'm already wishing I had another batch of these sitting around. Similar to the M&M Oatmeal Bars I've made, these things are addictive. I ate almost an entire batch of the M&M sort...and I ate too many of these for my own good too. I'm really not sure what it is...maybe the oatmeal? It just makes them so delicious and so much better than regular ole cookie bars. You guys have to try them!
