Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup creamy peanut butter (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in 30-second intervals until fully dissolved.

Step 2

Add the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and 1 cup of peanut butter to the melted butter. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Step 3

Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the bottom of the dish to form the base. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to press it down firmly.

Step 4

In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of peanut butter for the topping. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture is melted and smooth.

Step 5

Pour the melted chocolate topping over the peanut butter base, spreading evenly with a spatula for a smooth finish.

Step 6

Chill the bars in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate topping is firm.

Step 7

Once chilled, cut the bars into 16 squares (or desired serving size) using a warm knife to prevent cracking.

Step 8

Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Serve chilled or at room temperature for best results!
