This is one of my favorite go-to recipes! Everyone loves the mix of chocolate and peanut butter.

Fantastic! I did decrease the brown sugar to 3/4 cup and used equal portions of butterscotch and choc chips, per previous reviewers suggestions.

These were some of the best squares I've ever made. So delicious, I've made them three times and the only problem is that it's almost impossible to keep from eating half of them in one sitting!

I consider myself a pretty good cook. This recipe was followed to the letter. It was the worst thing I have baked in years. I ended up taking the chocolate/peanut topping off and throwing the rest in the trash. There was nothing chew, gooey about this recipe. I had to use a sharp knife to cut thru the bottom section, that's how hard it was.

These bars were wonderful. I made them for a friend that doesn't like chocolate, but loves peanut butter. She loved these bars.

There aren't many recipes that I don't find something to tweak just a little but this recipe is one I wouldn't touch. I've made them 3 times now and everyone loves them. Quick to make with simple ingredients.

This really does taste like a candy bar, though healthier. Easy, but very good. I've been asked to pass the recipe along to others. I do usually switch the proportions of the butterscotch and chocolate chips because I think it gives more flavor. Also, you can use honey instead of corn syrup.
