Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon Creamy peanut butter (for topping layer)
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, melted butter, and the 1 cup of creamy peanut butter for the base layer. Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared baking pan to form the base layer. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a flat glass to compress the layer tightly.
Step 4
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter for the topping layer. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 5
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter base layer and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the bars are firm and set.
Step 7
Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the bars out of the pan and transfer them to a cutting board. Slice into 16 squares or rectangles.
Step 8
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
