Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

Kind of like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Slightly crunchier (due to the graham cracker crumbs). Very easy!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups confectioners sugar
  • 1-1/2 cups peanut butter
  • 1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 4 tbsp peanut butter

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners sugar, and 1-1/2 cups peanut butter until well blended. 
  2. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13" pan.

  3. In the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the remaining 4 tbsp peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth (I did this in 45-second intervals, stirring between).

  4. Spread over the prepared crust.


  5. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.

I would make this in college and my roommate would call it "Sex in a pan". It is that good!
