    Jelly Swirled Peanut Butter Bars
    Peanut Butter Jelly Bars

    Peanut Butter Jelly Bars! Omg...these are freakin' awesome. Don't be 'jelly'!  You can make these too, and they will soon be your new favorite bars, I promise. Jelly and peanut butter are deliciously swirled in these yummy, soft Peanut Butter Jelly Bars. xoxo

    Jelly Swirled Peanut Butter Bars

    If you're even remotely a peanut butter & jelly fan, you will definitely go bonkers over these. Seriously, you have to try these. Plus, make them any flavor of jelly you want.  I went with strawberry, but grape, orange marmalade or raspberry are all really good flavors with peanut butter.  

    Jelly Swirled Peanut Butter Bars

    Peanut butter and jelly is such a staple at home, especially for brown bag lunches and afternoon snacks.  The kiddies will love these for sure.  They are so soft and deliciously addictive as well!

    Save some for later!  You can freeze them too for 2-3 months and just go from there!  (Guilty, I have eaten them frozen too...I know, I'm weird!)

      Can you use natural peanut butter? Or does it need to be the sugary kind?

        Hi Kim, you could just reduce the baking time about 5-7 minutes, because natural peanut butter has less oil and sugar than regular, so you don't want to overbake for moister bars. So glad you stopped by!
