I know this is not low fat or a dip but we made these tonight and they were a hit. I guess they could be another Super Bowl treat of Valentine's treat. They are also a great way to use the peanut butter cookie mixes we got on sale.
Peanut Butter S'more Bars
1 package Betty Crocker Peanut Butter cookie mix
1 T water
3T cooking oil
1 egg
Mix the cookie mix according to package instructions
3 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
3/4 c milk chocolate chips
2 tsp shortening
1 1/2 c milk chocolate M&M's
Spray a 13" x 9" pan with nonstick spray. Spread mixed peanut butter cookie mix in bottom. Bake at 350' for 16-18 minutes or until lightly browned and edges are firm.
Sprinkle with marshmallows; bake 2-3 minutes longer or until marshmallows are puffy.
In a small microwave safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Sprinkle M&M's over the marshmallow layer; drizzle with melted chocolate. Chill until set before cutting.
