Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter (for topping layer)
- 1 pinch Flaky sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, melted butter, and 1 cup of creamy peanut butter. Stir until the mixture is fully combined and has a dough-like consistency.
Press the peanut butter graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create the first layer.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Pour the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the graham cracker layer and spread evenly with a spatula to form the second layer.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the top for a hint of contrast.
Chill the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the layers are firm and set.
Once firm, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 16 squares or as desired.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
