Preparation

Step 1

Line square pan with aluminum foil, leaving 1 inch of foil overhanging on opposite sides. Mix powered sugar, margarine, 1 cup peanut butter, and the vanilla in a large bowl. Stir in cracker crumbs and peanuts (mixture will be stiff). Press in pan. Heat chocolate chips and 1/4 cup peanut butter over low heat, stirring frequently, until smooth. Spread over crumb mixture. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until chocolate is set. Remove from pan, using foil to lift. Fold back foil; cut peanut butter mixture into 36 squares. Refrigerate uncovered about 2 hours or until firm. Cover and refrigerate any remaining squares.
