Hersheys Chewy Peanut Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven to 350°F.
• Grease a 15 x 10-inch baking sheet (can use a 13 x 9-inch pan also).
• In a large bowl, combine the oats, graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, baking soda and peanuts; mix well until combined.
• In another bowl, combine corn syrup with melted butter and vanilla; mix well and add to the oat mixture; mix to combine.
• Press into prepared baking sheet/pan.
• Bake for 15 minutes (don't over bake!).
• Melt the chocolate chips with peanut butter in the microwave or double boiler until smooth.
• Spread on warm bars.
• Refrigerate to slightly set the chocolate (this makes for easier and more even slicing).
• Remove from fridge and slice into small bars.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13by-9-inch baking pan with foil, letting the excess hang over the edges of the pan by about 1 inch (this will help you lift the bar easily from the pan in one piece). Spray the pan with cooking spray.
• Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and sugars until combined. Use a whisk or a rubber spatula to mix in the egg, egg yolk, peanut butter and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the flour mixture until just combined (be careful not to over mix the dough or the bars will be tough). Fold in the chocolate chips and the peanuts.
• Scrape the dough into the prepared pan, pressing and smoothing the top with a rubber spatula. Bake until the top is slightly golden and firm to the touch and the edges are starting to pull away from the sides of the pan, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Lift up on the foil overhang to remove the bar from the pan, and transfer it to a cutting board. Use a ruler to cut it into 2-inch squares.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F and grease 13x9 baking pan.
• In a large bowl stir together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa, brown sugar, baking powder and salt.
• Add butter; cut in with pastry blender or with hands until mixture is well blended, resembling coarse crumbs.
• Add eggs; mix well.
• Spoon mixture into prepared pan, pressing firmly onto bottom of pan.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until mixture is set. Remove from oven; sprinkle peanut butter chips on top.
• Drizzle sweetened condensed milk evenly over chips; top with coconut. Return to oven; bake 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned on top.
• Cool completely in pan on wire rack.
• Cut into 24 bars.
