No Bake Peanut Butter Bars

So, I have mentioned in my weekly updates I don't really have any particular cravings but I have noticed that I want sweets way, way more than before.  This weekend I was browsing through my 1,000's of pins on Pinterest and saw this yummy, simple recipe in my Desserts board.  Yesterday I picked up the few things I needed and came straight home to whip these up.  So easy and delicious.

I will say.. this is not good to make with only 2 people in the house and one being pregnant. I am sending over half to work with Lance tomorrow so I don't sit around and eat the whole batch myself.

Peanut Butter Bars

Ingredients

Bottom Layer:
1 cup butter melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (I used a food processer to grind these up.. they need to be like dust)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup peanut butter

Top Layer:
4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners’ sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 inch pan. In the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the 4tbsp peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate for at least two hours before cutting into squares.

I just cut mine as I get them out to eat one.  I don't know how well these work if you leave them out after they have chilled, but I just leave my pan in the fridge and get them out as I want a square.. or two.. or three.  Oops.

Enjoy! :)
