Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Salted roasted peanuts, finely chopped
Instructions
Step 1: Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter and butter. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until smooth and fully melted.
Step 3: Add the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs to the melted mixture. Stir until well combined into a thick dough-like consistency.
Step 4: Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
Step 5: While the peanut butter base chills, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with the vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth.
Step 6: Remove the pan from the freezer and use the parchment paper to lift the peanut butter base out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and slice it into 16 wedges by first cutting the block into quarters, then slicing each quarter diagonally.
Step 7: Dip each wedge halfway into the melted chocolate, letting the excess drip off. Then immediately dip or sprinkle the chocolate-coated portion with the finely chopped peanuts.
Step 8: Place the finished wedges on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once all wedges are dipped and coated, refrigerate them for 20 minutes or until the chocolate sets.
Step 9: Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
