{ RECIPE :: Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars }

I know I shouldn't even be making treats at my house if I wanna loose this baby weight, but in my defense, I actually gave away 3/4 of this sinful treat to my parents, in-laws, and neighbors.  So there!  But honestly, I could have eaten the whole pan.  These things are sooo delicious!

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup butter melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (use the boxed kind, or grind them in a food processor. Tiny granules.)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup + 4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners’ sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended.

Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 inch pan. 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 peanut butter layer.

Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.
