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 microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter until fully liquid. Let it cool slightly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and 1 cup of creamy peanut butter. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well-combined and form a dough-like consistency.
Step 3
Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of the pan, spreading it out evenly to form the base layer.
Step 4
In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring well after each until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Step 5
Pour the melted chocolate-peanut butter mixture over the base layer in the baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the chocolate topping is set and firm.
Step 7
Once set, remove the pan from the fridge and cut into 16 equal-sized squares using a sharp knife.
Step 8
Serve immediately or store the squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Enjoy!
