Oatmeal cookie mixture
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp milk
2 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cups flour
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (optional)

Peanut butter layer
1/4 cup brown sugar and confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp butter, softened
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter

Chocolate layer
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350. Oatmeal cookie mixture: Beat the butter with sugars until creamy. Add the eggs, milk and vanilla and beat well. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, oats, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture until blended (no need to over mix).Crumble half of the cookie mixture into a greased glass 13x9 inch baking dish. Lightly press the mixture to spread it evenly, then pat down.

Peanut butter layer: Mix together all of the ingredients for the peanut butter layer until well blended. Drop all of this mixture by spoonfuls on top of the cookie layer, spreading it evenly. This is a very sticky process! Lightly press the peanut butter mixture into place by hand - you will need to wet your hands to keep the mixture from sticking to you, but a little water won't hurt the bar!

Chocolate layer: Spread the chocolate chips evenly over the peanut butter layer. Crumbling the remaining half of the cookie mixture over the chocolate layer, gently pressing it into place. You will probably need to wet your hands for this layer too! Bake for approximately 20 to 25 minutes, depending on your oven and the level of chewiness you prefer. Cool, then cut into squares. Lift them out of the pan with a metal spatula. Makes 18 to 24 squares.
