Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars


Um yeah, so I made these 2 times in 2 weeks.  :)  They are so good and so easy.  These are like homemade Reeses.


1 cup butter, melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons peanut butter

In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
In the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the prepared crust. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.

These need to be closer to room temp to cut, but I love them cold.  So, I refrigerate them, pull them out and let them sit, cut them, and then refrigerate them more.  Something about the way the chocolate is harder when it's cold is just right!
