Dessert: Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

This is one of my all-time favorite "bar" recipes. 

It's easy, with few ingredients and ALWAYS receives rave reviews from those I choose to share it with.  In reality, my girlfriend Julie is the one who introduced me to this gem of  a recipe and for that, I thank her.
