# Detailed Cooking Steps:

01 - Turn the oven on to 175°C and set the rack in the center.
02 - Cover a 23x33 cm pan with parchment or lightly grease some foil.
03 - Grab a medium bowl and stir together the flour, salt, and baking powder until mixed.
04 - In a big bowl, whip soft butter with both sugars until nice and creamy.
05 - Stir in the peanut butter, then the egg and yolk until smooth.
06 - At low speed, add the flour mix a bit at a time to the peanut butter mix, mixing halfway through each addition.
07 - Scoop about 240 grams of the dough into a different bowl and set it aside.
08 - Press the rest of the dough evenly across the pan bottom to make a smooth layer.

# Helpful Hints:

02 - Using parchment paper in the pan makes it easier to cut and lift bars.
03 - Watch the bake time since ovens differ; the base should be set but not too brown.
