Peanut Butter Fingers

These remind me of the school lunch peanut butter fingers. Yum!

--Cream together the following:
1/2 cup softened butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs
3/4 cup peanut butter
--Add the mixed remaining ingredients:
1 1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 cup oatmeal
3/4 tsp. soda
1/3 tsp. salt
--Bake @ 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Do not overcook. Cool. Spread thin layer of peanut butter when still warm. Top with chocolate frosting. This was made in a jellyroll pan when I had it. It can also be made in a 9 x13 pan.

Chocolate Frosting:
4 Tbsp. cocoa
1 cube butter
6 Tbsp. milk
--Bring to a boil. Add:
4 cups powdered sugar
4 tsp. vanilla
1 cup nuts (walnuts)
--Mix together thoroughly, then pour over Peanut Butter Fingers while they are still warm, but not hot!
