I love these bars because they are so easy to pull together for a party or a quick snack at home. They are a family favorite that saves me from heating up the kitchen on warm afternoons.

My best tip is to use a creamy peanut butter for the smoothest texture. If you want a little crunch, feel free to use crunchy peanut butter instead.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter for the topping

Instructions

  1. 1

    Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper so the bars are easy to lift out later.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, stir together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and one cup of peanut butter until well combined.

  3. 3

    Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of your prepared pan.

  4. 4

    In a microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and the remaining two tablespoons of peanut butter together in 30 second intervals, stirring until completely smooth.

  5. 5

    Spread the melted chocolate mixture over your peanut butter base.

  6. 6

    Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least two hours or until the chocolate is set before slicing into squares.

💡 Tips

Store these bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them firm. They will stay fresh for up to one week, though they rarely last that long in my house.
