These no-bake peanut butter bars will be ready before you know it, so let's get started!
Ingredients:
Base:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 cups (240g) crushed graham crackers
1 cup (300g) peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1¾ cups (210g) powdered sugar
Chocolate Topping:
1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup (65g) peanut butter
Instructions:
Prepare the Pan:
Line an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper or foil, making four snips at the corners so it folds easily. This will help the bars come out in a snap and keep cleanup easy.
Melt the Butter:
Cut the butter into pieces and place it in a large bowl. Microwave in 30-second bursts until fully melted, stirring in between to prevent splattering.
Crush the Graham Crackers:
Crush graham crackers by placing them in a bag and using a rolling pin or your hands to break them up. You can use pre-crushed graham crackers, but leaving some bigger pieces adds to the texture.
Combine Ingredients:
Add the melted butter, crushed graham crackers, and peanut butter to a large bowl. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add Powdered Sugar:
Gradually add in the powdered sugar, mixing until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. Ensure there are no lumps of powdered sugar.
Prepare the Base:
Fold the graham cracker mixture into the bowl, maintaining some of the larger pieces for texture. Spread this mixture evenly into your prepared baking dish, smoothing it out to the edges.
Chill the Base:
Place the dish in the refrigerator to start chilling while you prepare the chocolate topping.
Make the Chocolate Topping:
Combine the chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-40 second bursts, stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.
Add the Chocolate Topping:
Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the chilled peanut butter base, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Create a wavy pattern with the spatula for a decorative touch.
Chill Again:
Refrigerate the bars for at least an hour until the chocolate topping is fully set.
Serve:
Once chilled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut them into desired shapes and sizes. Enjoy the crunchy, creamy, salty, and sweet treat!
