Ingredients

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

Directions

Step 1

Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, powdered sugar, and melted butter until thoroughly mixed.

Step 3

Stir in the creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and forms a thick dough-like consistency.

Step 4

Press the peanut butter mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, creating a firm and even layer. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to smooth the surface.

Step 5

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 cup peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

Step 6

Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer in the baking dish. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Refrigerate the bars for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate topping has completely set.

Step 8

Once firm, remove the bars from the dish using the parchment paper, and cut them into 16 squares or the desired size.

Step 9

Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
