Perfect! so light and fluffy! I was a little short on graham cracker crumbs, so I tossed in some oatmeal (about half and half). Otherwise, I followed the recipe ingredients exactly, although I put it in an 8X8 baking dish to make deeper squares. I'd make it again

If you like peanut butter and chocolate, you have to make this recipe! We used a 9 x 13 pan and it is easy enough for kids to help make.

These are fabulous. I'm almost sick from eating so many of them! I packaged what I didn't eat into Christmas tins and froze the rest. Easy recipe and very delicious.
