    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  


Square
1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening
1/2 cup margarine
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup uncooked quick oats
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 heaping tbsp chunky peanut butter
2 heaping tbsp creamy peanut butter

Frosting
6 tbsp butter, softened
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt
16 oz confectioners sugar
1/4 cup milk

Preheat the oven to 350. Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking dish. In a large bowl, mix the shortening, margarine, flour, brown sugar, oats, baking soda, salt, and peanut butters until well blended and crumbly. Press into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, and leave the pan in the oven for 5 minutes longer.

To prepare the frosting, combine the butter, vanilla, cocoa, and salt in a medium-size bowl. When smooth, alternately add the sugar and milk. If the frosting is too thin, add a bit more sugar. For thinner frosting, add more milk (just 1 tbsp at a time). Stir until creamy. Frost the peanut butter squares while warm. NOTE: Add 2 tbsp of peanut butter to the frosting if desired.
