I know, school lunch might bring back some awful memories for some of us. But trust me these are THE best peanut butter bars you will ever taste! I used to buy school lunch just for the peanut butter bars. I found this recipe in a Ward Cookbook that I received as a wedding gift, of course first thing I checked out was the dessert section!
