Step 2. Combine brown sugar, sugar, and olive oil in a bowl. Add in eggs, 1/2 cup peanut butter, baking soda, and vanilla. Mix well. Blend in flour and oats.
Press oat mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake on the bottom rack of the oven for 20 minutes.
Step 3. Remove baking pan from oven and spread chips evenly over cake layer.
Let sit for 5 minutes and then spread melted chips evenly over the cake layer. Set aside.
Step 4. Combine powdered sugar and peanut butter. Mix in milk until icing is the consistency to drizzle. Place icing in a zip lock bag, trim a corner, and drizzle over the chip layer.
