Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares

  • 24

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Butter (2 sticks) ; divided
  • 2 Cups Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1 1/2 Cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
  • 3 Cups Powdered (confectioner's) Sugar
  • 2 Cups Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips (12 oz)

Preparation

Step 1

Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of the butter in medium saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter, confectioner's sugar, and graham cracker crumbs. This will make a stiff dough.

Spread dough in a lightly greased 9- by 13-inch dish. Press down evenly.

Melt remaining 1/2 cup butter over low heat. Add chocolate chips and keep heat very low. When chocolate is soft, stir gently. Continue heating until lumps are all melted. Stir, and then spread this mixture over the peanut butter layer.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes, then cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator.
