If you're looking for an easy and delicious treat to make for the holidays, this is one. My favorite candy is Reese's...anything! This is very similar to Reese's peanut butter but except in bar form. I got it on a receipt from Kroger. I guess it's because I bought Nestle's morsels. When I made this, I misread the directions and didn't split the peanut butter, I put it all in the mixture. This worked and I can't really see it being done another way. Since I didn't have any peanut butter to put in the topping, I just used peanut butter and chocolate swirled morsels. Worked well! Once again, I took this to a shower, but this was a wedding shower. I sent the rest home with my friend for her husband...he really enjoyed them, too!
No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars from Nestle
2 cups peanut butter, divided (or not!)
3/4 cups butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar, divided
3 cups graham cracker crumbs (you can get these already crushed at the store!)
2 cups chocolate chips
Prepare a 13X9 pan with cooking spray. Bean 1 1/4 cups peanut butter (or all of it like I did!) and beat until creamy. Slowly beat in 1 cup sugar. Then stir in remaining sugar, graham cracker crumbs, and 1/2 cup of chocolate chips. Press this into the prepared pan.
Melt 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips over low heat with 3/4 cup peanut butter (or add some peanut butter chips like I did!). Spread over peanut butter mixture an refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Cut into bars and enjoy!
These look delicious!! I might just have to try them sometime!
