Hey guys it's Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies!
Today we're gonna be making something I got so many requests for!
We are gonna be making something Catbug!
Catbug is an adorable character from the series Bravest Warriors.
I'll put a link down below, so if you haven't seen it before, go check it out, it is an
adorable cartoon series that I love, and I love little catbugs!
So today we are gonna be making Catbug Peanut Butter Squares!
Let's get started!
The things you will need, will be: 1/4 Cup of flour, 1/3 Cup of regular sugar, 1/3 Cup of
brown sugar, 1/3 Cup of peanut butter, you can either do creamy or chunky peanut butter,
whatever one is your favorite,
3/4s teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 a teaspoon of salt, 1/2 a teaspoon of vanilla extract,
and then 20 mini-peanut butter cups!
These are the brand by Reese's, I love these, they're so good but you're just gonna have
to unwrap all of 'em and I've just put 20 of 'em in this little bowl.
Then you'll need 1 egg and one sh-tick of butter which is 1/2 Cup of butter.
You'll also need an an additional mixing bowl and a whisk and a pan. any size that you like,
this one is 11 by 8, and a piece of wax paper, "Pam" Baking Spray and an electric mixer.
I'm gonna be using my stand-mixer, but you can just use a hand-mixer OR you could do
it- you could do it manual!
You can hand-whisk it all together!
All right, let's get started!
In a big mixing bowl, you're gonna combine both your sugars, your butter and your vanilla
extract until things are very light and fluffy and we're gonna add our egg.
Once this is all mixed up, you're gonna add your peanut butter!
It's really goopy so you'll probably need your spatula.
In this bowl you're gonna add all your dry-ingredients
You're gonna add your flour...
BOOOM!
Your salt,
beeewmnn!
And your baking soda
Beeeeew!
Then you're gonna whisk it all together!
Now that you've got your dry-ingredients all mixed together, we're gonna slowly add it
to our peanut butter mixture until it's all combined.
Now you're gonna take 20 mini-peanut butter cups and- I got the Reese's ones, they look
like this- so you're just gonna unwrap all of 'em and then you're gonna cut ' em in half...
HI-YAH!
Oooh...that actually worked.
And then you're just gonna take the halves and put 'em in the bowl.
Now you're just gonna mix it for another minute and then we'll get the pan ready.
Now that we've got our peanut butter square mixture all ready, you're gonna take your
baking pan and a piece of wax paper or parchment paper, whatever you have handy, and you're
gonna put it in your tray for easy cleanup...
Like this,
...and you're gonna take a little bit of baking-spray or butter, whatever you wanna use to grease
your pan.
Spray a little bit in the bottom.
WOOOH!!
All right and now you're just gonna take your peanut butter mixture and put it in your pan
and flatten it out!
Oooh they smell so good! Smells like Peanut Butter Heaven!
Now that you've got your peanut butter mixture in your pan, you're gonna heat your oven to
350 and you're gonna bake for about 17 minutes, but keep your eye on it!
As soon as the tops start to turn a golden-brown, it's donnnnnnnne!
"Your mom said to say that I could have...just one peanut butter square, but not til after
they cooled down!"
"I'm Catbug!" And now we are gonna cut our peanut butter squares INTO squares!
Oh my gosh, they smell so good!
Ta-daaaaaaa! Here are our Catbug Peanut Butter Squares!
