1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. sugar
1 c. + 2 tbsp. firmly packed brown sugar
3 eggs
2 c. peanut butter
1/4 tsp. vanilla
3/4 tsp. light corn syrup

Cream butter; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add eggs, peanut butter, vanilla and corn syrup, beating well. Add oats, soda and salt, stirring well. Stir in the remaining ingredients.
