Here’s a recipe that is so good and relatively quick to prepare…just give it a good 2 hours to set, if not you get chocolate peanut butter mushiness, which is ok all by yourself sitting in front of the television with a spoon and a 9×13 (please, no judgment), but to serve to the masses firm squares are much better.
Enjoy!
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
- 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 3 cups confectioners’ sugar sifted
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Spray a 9×13 lightly with Cooking spray and then wipe it with a paper towel, so you have a very light coating on the pan, but your bars won’t be greasy.
Combine the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and graham cracker crumbs in a food processor. Process until the mixture forms a ball. Press into pan using your hands or a spatula.
Melt the chocolate chips microwave-safe glass dish in the microwave for 1 minute on high (100%). Stir. If the chocolate has not completely melted, microwave for 10 seconds more, then stir. Spread evenly over the cookie layer with a spatula. Chill for several hours.
Paula says to let it come to room temp, but after making these several times I have always served them cold and they have been better…again, don’t let them sit out too long because they get too soft to pick up.
I made these last week! And they were so yummy!!
Thanks for the recipe!
Those look perfectly decadent! I must have them!
I am so glad i found your blog. You are so talented. I'll have to spend some time looking at all the other great stuff you have here. These look awesome by the way!
These are wonderful… not a fan of peanut butter that much, but I am sure almond or coconut butter would be my next bets.
No judgment here….that sounds like heaven! 🙂
oh please don t tell me these are so easy to make. I love chocolate and peanut butter and I ll end up eating them all 🙂
These are pretty darn good. I've made them before but used almond butter! I do think they'd probably be even tastier with regular PB.

We are definitely on the same page. Anything chocolate and peanut butter is the best! Sometime in a pinch I will just eat a spoon full of peanut butter with some chocolate chips on it.
Mmm, those look great! I wonder if they would still be as tasty with a peanut butter substitute, since I'm allergic. I might have to try it and see! 🙂
