Peanut butter chews
Makes one 8-inch square pan

1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon butter
1/2 cup sifted flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream together sugars, peanut butter,
egg, vanilla and butter. In separate bowl, mix flour, salt, oats and
baking powder, then add all at once to creamed mixture.

Grease and flour an 8-inch square pan. Press mixture into pan with
fingers, making it level. Bake about 15 minutes or until golden
brown. Chews will be quite soft when removed from oven but will firm
up as they cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and cut into squares
while still warm.
