Ideal for parties, potlucks, or a sweet-tooth craving, these irresistible bars are a fridge-staple dessert thatโs simple to make and impossible to forget.
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal later.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar.
Add 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and 1 cup of melted butter to the crumb mixture. Stir until well combined and a crumbly, dough-like mixture forms.
Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, making sure to create a smooth, even layer. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter for the chocolate topping.
Microwave the chocolate-peanut butter mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until fully melted and smooth (about 1-2 minutes total).
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer in the dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate is firm and fully set.
Once the bars are set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift them out of the baking dish and transfer them to a cutting board.
Cut into 16 squares and serve chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
