A layer of creamy sweet peanut butter topped with a layer of chocolate, remniscent of Reese's peanut butter cups

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 cups powdered (confectioner's) sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter (in addition to butter listed above)
12 ounces (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips

1. Melt 1/2 cup butter in medium saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter, confectioner's sugar, and graham cracker crumbs. This will make a stiff "dough".

2. Spread dough in a lightly greased 9x13-inch dish. Press down evenly.

3. Melt remaining 1/2 cup butter over low heat. Add chocolate chips and keep heat very low. When chocolate is soft, stir gently. Continue heating until lumps are all melted. Stir, and then spread this mixture over the peanut butter layer.

4. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, then cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator.

This recipe was originally from Jessica B. of Tennessee.

This is one of my favorite desserts. It's almost more of a candy or candy bar. I think it tastes just as good as Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, which is saying a lot, since most homemade "Reese's" imitation candies don't taste great, in my opinion.

Anyway, these chocolate peanut butter squares are quick and simple to make, and are so yummy and addictive! They also freeze well. My rating: 10/10.
