No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
These No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars come together in less than 30 minutes with a few simple ingredients. They taste like a giant Reese's peanut butter cup and are sure to please all the chocolate lovers in your life!
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup peanut butter, melted
- 2 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, with 2 teaspoon butter
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the melted butter, melted peanut butter, graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar. Stir or use a mixer until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Press the peanut butter mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. (Line the pan with parchment for easy removal later.)
- Place the chocolate chips and 2 teaspoon of butter in a microwaveable bowl and microwave for 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until everything is melted. Spread the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer.
- Cool the bars in the refrigerator for at least an hour before slicing and serving.
Notes
I like to refrigerate the bars to help them cool faster and last longer but I like to serve them at room temperature for the best texture so I recommend removing them from the fridge 1 hour before serving.
To melt the butter and peanut butter, put them in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 3o second intervals, stirring in between, until both are melted.
