By jann

Ingredients

• 2 c. confectioners' sugar
• 2 c. graham cracker crumbs
• 1 c. smooth peanut butter
• 1/2 c. plus 2 tbsp. butter, melted
• 2 c. (12 oz.) milk chocolate or semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted(I used 6 oz. of each

Preparation

Step 1

Have ready 9 x 13 inch baking pan.
In large bowl, mix confectioners' sugar and graham cracker crumbs together.
In small bowl, stir the melted butter into the peanut butter and blend. Pour over the graham cracker & confectioner's sugar mixture and stir until mixed well.
Scrape into ungreased baking pan and press into even layer.
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave. Watch closely.
Spread melted chocolate over the top.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours until chocolate is firm.
Let stand 10-20 minutes at room temperature before cutting into bars.
Cutting them is easiest if you dip your knife into hot water, wipe the blade & cut. After each cut, redip the knife & wipe etc.
