Very yummy! Great for when you need a "peanut butter cup fix." My dad said they taste just like the store bought candy, except it's cheaper to make! The PB texture came out really smooth even though it looked "rough" when I poured it in the pan. I lined the pan with foil and put the pan with the PB mixture in the freezer while I melted the chocolate. After I poured on the choc. mixture on top I put it back in the freezer for 30 mins. and then took it out and cut it with a pizza cutter and put it back in the freezer. It set-up nicely and was ready to eat in no time! I put the rest of bars in a container in the fridge. Thanks for sharing.
