Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars













Recipe
:
*2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup butter, melted
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
2 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar (powdered sugar)

In a medium bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar, peanut butter and melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Melt chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring occasionally. Spread melted chocolate over the crumb crust. Chill for about 5 minutes, then cut into bars before the chocolate is completely set, then chill until ready to serve.

*one package Graham crackers is about 1 1/2 cups of crumbs.

Changes:
Halved the batch. Used milk chocolate chocolate chips. Used a round pie pan. Microwaved chips 30 seconds twice.

Review:
Rating 8. The graham crackers give a nice crunch. I prefer the peanut butter cups to this.

Next Time:
Less butter and add some peanut butter to chocolate.
