Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (crushed into fine crumbs) graham crackers
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 0.75 cups (melted) unsalted butter
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup additional creamy peanut butter
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to make it easier to remove the bars later.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and powdered sugar.
Add the melted butter and 1 cup of creamy peanut butter to the mixture. Stir until well combined and resembles a dough-like consistency.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to create the base layer.
Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips and the additional 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the graham cracker layer. Use a spatula to spread it evenly over the top.
Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate topping is firm.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Cut into 16 squares or rectangles.
Serve chilled and store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
