Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 60 grams Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 300 grams Crushed digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
- 150 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter (for chocolate topping)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal, and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter completely.
Add the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and honey to the saucepan and stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the vanilla extract.
Fold in the crushed digestive biscuits (or graham crackers) until fully incorporated, forming a thick mixture.
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, using the back of a spoon or your hands to smooth it out. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and the additional peanut butter (2 tablespoons). Microwave in short 20-second intervals, stirring well between each, until both are completely melted and combined into a smooth chocolate topping.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the pressed peanut butter base in the baking dish. Spread it evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, or until the slices are firm and set.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the dessert out of the baking dish. Cut into 12 even slices and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
