Reese's Peanut Butter Bars

These are amazingly delicious!!
This recipe makes a huge 11 X 18 X 1" cookie sheet full, so if you need less you'll have to adjust the recipe. If you don't have a pan that size, you can get a non-stick one at Walmart for around $5. I left the recipe large because we all love them that much and I will probably make this for dinners or get-togethers as well.
