Notes
Fresh Ingredients. Make sure to check all of your ingredients that they are all fresh for best results.
Mix Gently and Quickly. When adding the hot peanut butter mixture to the dry ingredients, mix gently and quickly then press into baking dish.
Plastic Knife. I love using a plastic knife to cut my bars into rectangles. No sticking. Nice and easy.
