Ingredients
- 2.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 cups chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 20 pieces caramel candies, unwrapped
- 1 cup mini chocolate candy bars, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal later.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, melted butter, and peanut butter. Mix until well combined.
Step 3
Firmly press the mixture into the prepared baking dish to form an even base layer. Place in the refrigerator while preparing the topping.
Step 4
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Step 5
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the chilled base layer and spread evenly with a spatula. Return to the refrigerator to set for about 10 minutes.
Step 6
Meanwhile, melt the caramel candies in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 15 seconds, until smooth. Drizzle the caramel over the chocolate layer.
Step 7
Sprinkle the chopped mini chocolate candy bars evenly over the top of the caramel layer, gently pressing them into the surface so they adhere.
Step 8
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until completely set.
Step 9
Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the Candy Bar Squares out of the pan and place on a cutting board. Slice into 16 squares and serve.
