CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER TREATS

Chocolate Peanut Butter Treats - Copy (2) Chocolate Peanut butter treats are my favorite.  These graham cracker, marshmallow, peanut butter treats are addictive.  You won’t be able to eat just one!  I make these and keep them in the refrigerator and try to eat just a small piece when I am craving something sweet.  They are easy to make.  If you like ooey-gooey chocolate this is for you!  I like them with coffee in the morning,  too. These are great for any gathering.  Make them for a tailgate party, hayride, Halloween or Christmas.  Just anytime you have people together and there will not be any left.

18 honey graham cracker squares, crushed
1 stick of butter or margarine, melted or 8 tablespoons
1 2/3 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 (7 1/2 ounce jar) marshmallow fluff
1 cup dark chocolate morsels (can use whatever chocolate chips you like or even use butterscotch chips)
 
Crush the crackers and put in large bowl.(I put them in a plastic ziplock bag and crush with rolling pin). Melt the butter and add to crumbs. Mix well with spoon. Stir in the powdered sugar and peanut butter.  Mix well and press into a greased 8 inch square pan.  Remove the top from the marshmallow fluff and heat in microwave in the jar until  you can spread over crumb mixture evenly. (You have to watch it constantly or it will come out of the jar.)  Next, melt the chocolate chips in microwave until they can be spread over the marshmallow.  Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours until you can cut evenly with a knife.  Cut into squares or bars. Enjoy!
 
Note:  I keep these refrigerated.
