Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bars

My daughter and I are Cookie Dough Fiends.

Naturally, it's our favorite ice cream flavor.

We have a cookie dough pact.

When either of us bakes cookies, we have to save a chunk of the dough for each other.

She even named one of her kittens Cookie Dough. Seriously.

Now you understand why this recipe was a "must try."

Not to mention, it's in combination of another one of my faves, peanut butter.

It's a no-bake bar that's less cookie and more fudge.

Cookie Dough Lovers - unabashedly unite!
