Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar. Mix well to ensure an even distribution.
Add the melted butter and peanut butter to the dry mixture. Stir until the mixture is completely combined and forms a smooth, sticky dough.
Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy lifting later.
Transfer the peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon or your hands to press it down into an even layer.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Using a spoon or a piping bag, drizzle the melted dark chocolate over the peanut butter layer in your desired pattern.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top for a touch of flavor contrast.
Place the baking pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until firmly set.
Once set, lift the peanut butter graham slab out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Use a sharp knife to cut into 16 squares.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
