Welcome

Welcome to Kay's Village Recipes! Some believe the heart of the home is in the kitchen, I believe the kitchen is the heart of the village. It takes a “village” to live life to its fullest and it has nothing to do with geography or how large or small a town you live in. My “village” is inhabited by family members, dear friends, co-workers, and the occasional visitor who is in my life for a short period of time. Each one of these people has a profound impact on my emotional wellbeing as well as the quality of my life, and all have one thing in common…they all love to eat, and I love to cook for them.
On this blog you will find free, family recipes for: homemade soups, breads, apple pie, cakes, candies, snacks, casseroles, main courses, side dishes, appetizers, breakfast, home-style cooking, and so much more.

Peanut Butter Bars

Original Recipe from: Margaret Johnson-Hendrix

I used to make these bar cookies for the kids all the time, and they loved them. Peanut Butter and Chocolate go together so well, a perfect treat. Very easy to make and no baking required! Great for hot days when you don’t want to heat up the kitchen. Make a batch for your family or coworkers and watch them disappear. Enjoy!

Ingredients

1.5 cups Margarine (or Butter if you prefer), softened
1.5 cups chunky Peanut Butter
6 ounces semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
1.5 cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
1 pound Powdered Sugar

Directions

Melt together and blend well

              1 cup Margarine
              1.5 cups Peanut Butter

In separate blow, mix:

              1 pound Powdered Sugar
              1.5 cups Graham Cracker Crumbs

Blend Sugar and Peanut mixtures together until well blended. Spread into a 13x9 inch pan.

Melt semi-sweet Chocolate Chips with ½ cup margarine and spread on top of the Peanut Butter mixture.

Refrigerate until set. Cut into squares.
