Submitted by senseicheryl

"I found this recipe in the July/August 2008 issue of Weight Watchers magazine. It was submitted by Wendy L. from Missouri and here is what she said: "For an instant summer sweet, I keep a stash of these bars in the fridge up to 1 week ahead." 2 bars = 4 points"

1. Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with non-stick spray.

These were good but didn't stick together well. I think next time I'd use a little more peanut butter. Thanks!
