No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars


Here is another recipe from the new cookbook and this one has 5 ingredients. These were simple to make but some how I did not execute it right and the bottom layer wanted to crumble. So with that, I put it in a bowl and broke it all up and we ate it that way. It was still very yummy eating out of a bowl with a spoon. Caution on the sugar overload tho.

No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
2 cups peanut butter, divided
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
3 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups (12 oz. package) Nestle' Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini morsels, divided

Beat 1 1/4 cups peanut butter and butter in a large mixer bowl until creamy. Gradualy beat in 1 cup powerded sugar. With hands or wooden spoon, work in remaining powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs and 1/2 cup morsels. Press evenly into prepared pan. Smooth top with spatula.

Melt remaining peanut butter and remaining morsels in medium, heavy-duty saucepan over lowest possible heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Spread over graham cracker crust in a pan. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until chocolate is firm; cut into bars. Store in refigerator.
