1 package (17.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ Peanut Butter Cookie Mix
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 egg
1/3 cup old fashioned oats
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla
2-3 tablespoons milk

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl or stand mixer, mix together cookie mix, 1/4 cup butter, egg, oats and water. Press into a nonstick or parchment-lined 9x9-inch baking pan. Bake 20-22 minutes, or just until the center sets. Whip together peanut butter and 2 tablespoons butter. Gently spread mixture across top of hot peanut butter bars. Let bars cool completely. In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat together 1/4 cup butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla and just enough milk to make spreadable frosting. Frost cooled bars, cut into squares and serve.
