Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup of butter - melted

  • 1 cup of creamy peanut butter
  • 1.5 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Spray a 9X9 baking pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl combine confectioners sugar, crushed graham crackers and peanut butter. Top with melted butter and mix well with a spoon. Press mixture into pan.
  • Heat chocolate chips in microwave safe bowl until fully melted. I melted them for about 20 seconds at a time, stir and 20 more seconds, until fully melted. Pour over peanut butter mixture and spread evenly.
  • Chill in refrigerator for at least 3 hours until hardened. You may need to let sit for a few minutes before you can cut them after they have hardened.
