Judy Davis' Recipe:

1 cup Brown sugar
1 cup Sugar
1 cup Butter
2 Eggs
1 cup Peanut Butter
2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla
2 cup Flour
2 cup Oats

Cream butter and sugar
Add eggs and beat until smooth
Add Peanut Butter blend
Sift baking soda, salt, flour, oats
Add vanilla

Frosting
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
Approx. 1/4 cup water (my mom said not to do a full 1/4 cup)

blend until water is absorbed

add powdered sugar until you get the thickness you want
approx. 2 tbsp cocoa (until you get the right color)
1 tsp vanilla


A few times she has whipped peanut butter and put a layer on before the frosting, it's good!

** I'll have to ask her about the baking temperature and time.
