Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Peanut butter, creamy
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 1.5 cups Chocolate chips, semi-sweet
- 1 tablespoon Peanut butter, creamy (for topping)
Instructions
Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and the melted butter. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs to the peanut butter mixture. Mix until the mixture forms a thick, uniform dough.
Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan to form the base layer. Smooth the surface using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of peanut butter in 30-second increments, stirring between each increment, until the mixture is completely smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer in the pan. Spread it evenly using a spatula to create a smooth top layer.
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until the chocolate is fully set.
Once set, use the parchment overhang to lift the chilled square out of the pan. Place on a cutting board and cut into 16 squares.
Serve immediately or store the squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
