These gluten-free peanut butter bars with chocolate peanut butter frosting are one of our family favorite desserts to make!
If you want a chewy, decadent and delicious treat, these gluten-free peanut butter bars with chocolate peanut butter frosting are the best.
We love making these gluten-free peanut butter bars with chocolate peanut butter frosting because they are easy to make and are so tasty! My husband recently requested these at our family Yellowstone vacation and he isn’t gluten-free. None of his family is gluten-free either and they were a huge hit. The point is, whether you are gluten-free or not, you are going to love them!
While the chewy peanut butter bar itself is full of flavor, the chocolate peanut butter frosting is truly the gem. I dare you not to eat the frosting right out of the bowl while you are making them…
This recipe is just one of many delicious recipes found in the cookbook my mom and I published.
