Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and greasing a 9x13-inch baking pan. In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, 1/4 cup of peanut butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Slowly stir in the oats until everything is well mixed, then press the mixture evenly into your prepared pan. Pop it into the oven and bake for about 12 to 14 minutes, or until the top turns a nice golden brown. Let it sit for a few minutes while you melt the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and 1/3 cup of peanut butter together in the microwave. Heat in short bursts of 15 seconds, stirring each time until the mixture is silky and combined. Spread this warm, gooey topping over the bars, then let it cool completely for a couple of hours before slicing and serving.
