Ingredients

  • 1 pound Powdered Sugar
  • 1 cup Peanut Butter
  • 2 sticks Butter Melted
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 12 ounces Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. 1
    In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and graham cracker crumbs.
  2. 2
    Pour the melted butter (or margarine) into the mixture.
  3. 3
    Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well-incorporated and a uniform dough forms.
  4. 4
    Transfer the peanut butter mixture to a cookie sheet or a 9×12 inch pan.
  5. 5
    Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread and press it into an even layer.
  6. 6
    Melt the chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave (in short bursts).
  7. 7
    Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter base and spread it evenly to the edges.
  8. 8
    Place the pan in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to let the chocolate begin to set.
  9. 9
    Remove from the fridge and gently score the top into squares with a knife. This makes it much easier to cut clean lines once the chocolate is fully hardened.
  10. 10
    Return the pan to the refrigerator for another 20 minutes (or until firm) before serving.
