If I had to choose my all time favorite dessert from Six Sisters’ Stuff, it would definitely be our Lunch Lady Peanut Butter Bars! I have had to put a ban from making them at our house because I tend to eat half the pan….or more!
I finally couldn’t take it anymore and decided I could make a cookie with the same flavor, and boy was I right! They were delicious!

I agree, the Lunch lady Peanut Butter Bars are DANGEROUS! I can’t wait to try these, even though I should. 🙂

I made these and they turned out AMAZING!
They look great!
I am sharing on my FB page and pinning… Thank you for visiting our party!
I made these this week and they are fantastic!
These look amazing! I am planning on making them this week but I wanted to add protein powder and ground flax seed. If I do this, should I just increase a little of the peanut butter?
OMG! I made these yesterday for bowling and came home with an empty container 🙂 They are delicious!
I tried these today, only with one change – 1/4 cup applesauce in place of the egg – and that was just because I was out of eggs. But they turned out great! I will definitely make these again.
Super yummy and highly addictive! I couldn’t stop eating them!
We made these last night, and the batter turned out pretty runny. Any ideas why? I would add more Oatmeal next time.
I am allergic to peanut butter. But looking at your pictures still makes me want to try it even with the risks. I will be trying this one out for sure!!
These turned out wonderful!!! Delicious! My go to recipe for oatmeal peanut butter cookies! Can’t wait to try more recipes!!
Oh my gosh, these cookies are amazing. Had the family over for dinner and not a single cookie was left on the dessert plate! Didn’t change a single thing.
Making these right now! Had to use almond butter instead of peanut because I didn’t have enough AND I accidentally doubled the amount of oats but they look like they’re going to turn out and smell utterly fantastic!
I may have to make these “mistakes” again!
How many cookies does this recipe yield?? I did not see it listed on the recipe
It makes 3 dozen cookies. It is listed right above the list of ingredients.
I LOVED these cookies. Made them exactly as the recipe is written.
I love trying new recipes and These are a new favorite!! I replaced the peanut butter with my homemade almond butter and did a full cup of old fashioned oats and they are fabulous! Thank you for sharing!
My experience:
The batter was a little to loose so I added additional oatmeal, then used a small scoop instead of rolling into balls. My recipe made 23 cookies of a perfect size. 3 dozen of these would be quite small in my opinion. The verdict was a resounding YUMMMM!
My family, hunting buddies and friends all love these. For a twist last night I swapped Nutella for peanut butter and used peanut butter chips. They won’t make it through the weekend!
(except no salt since i use salted butter)
