Chocolate Raspberry Peanut Butter Bars

Heat oven to 350ºF. Spray a 9×13 pan, set aside.

In a bowl, combine cookie ingredients until a soft dough forms. Carefully spread dough onto prepared pan. Bake 15 minutes. Let cool completely before proceeding to the filling.

Beat all filling ingredients until smooth. Add more milk if filling is too stiff. Spread filling onto cooled cookie crust. Top with chocolate.

When chocolate is mostly melted, stir in preserves stirring until completely melted and smooth. Let cool for 10 minutes before spreading on top of the filling.
