Crunchy Chocolate-Peanut Butter Bars
"I was going to make my favorite chewy chocolate chip bars whose recipe I found here on Zaar. But we ran out of brown sugar just as I took out the crust from the oven. I had a full bag of chocolate chips, and some peanut butter, so I combine them and made these! By the way, they look and taste fabulous with a little powdered sugar sprinkled over top of them!"

Hi! My name is haley. I love to bake and I love healthy food. My favorite things to do for fun are go out for a jog, spend time outdoors with family, have dinners on the backyard patio, and just spend time with my friends.
Now we are remodeling our basement, and my room will be down there! It will be nice to just get away sometimes.
We currently have no pets, but the critters in the woods sure call our yard their home! A few days ago, we found a couple of snakes in our garage. I freaked out! I am so petrified of snakes, spiders, and any bug that looks sort of creepy!
Well, I hope you enjoy my recipes! I know that I sure do! Have a great 2008!!!
I can't wait to see what the rest of this year will bring!!!!!!!!!!!
