Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

Bars that are pretty darn close to Reese's peanut butter cups.

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup butter, melted
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips  (Sometimes I use half milk chocolate chips)
  • 4 tablespoons peanut butter

Directions:

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
  2. In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the prepared crust. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.
