- Reviews 1
Ready In: 25 mins
Yields: 24 bars
Ingredients
- 1 1⁄2 cups graham crackers, crushed (about 1/3 of a box)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 1⁄2 cups peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 3 1⁄2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 (12 ounce) bag chocolate chips
Directions
- Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs. One third of a box is usually one cellphane wrapped package. Mix in the cinnamon and set aside.
- Melt butter in a large saucepan. Remove from heat and add peanut butter and vanilla and mix well. Add the powdered sugar and graham crackers, stir until well combined (it should be a stiff dough, you may want to use a hand mixer).
- Pat the mixture into an ungreased 9x13 pan.
- Melt the chocolate over low heat in a heavy saucepan, or spread evenly in a glass pie plate and microwave 30 seconds at a time, stirring after each 30 seconds, until melted.
- Spread the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer.
- Refrigerate for one hour, bring to room temperature, and cut into bars.
