That name is a mouthful but I promise that these bars are the bees knees! These bars show off my love for the classic food combination, Peanut Butter, Chocolate and Bananas! Can you ever go wrong with that combination? I don't think you can! I remember eating peanut butter and banana sandwiches as a little kid, and still one of my go to snacks is peanut butter covered banana with mini chocolate chips! Perfection, oh its the little things in life that make me happy!
Do you want to know another great thing about these bars? You only need 6 simple ingredients, many of which I bet you already have on hand! They take little to no time to bake, and they leave your home smelling of fresh baked goodness!
