So Popular

I made this snack for the staff at summer camp and they like it so much, I thought that I would put it on the blog. I found this recipe in the Penzeys magazine. To me, this taste like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

PEANUT BUTTER BARS

1 cellophane wrapped package of graham crackers
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
2 sticks butter
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
1 1/2 cup peanut butter, creamy or chunky
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1 12 ounce bag chocolate chips

  1. Crush the graham crackers; mix in the cinnamon and set aside.
  2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan; remove from heat and add vanilla and peanut butter and mix well.
  3. Add the powdered sugar and graham crackers.
  4. Stir until well combined: it will be a stiff dough.
  5. Pat the mixture into an ungreased 9x13 pan.
  6. Melt the chocolate either on the stove or in the microwave.
  7. Spread the melted chocolate over the peanut butter mixture.
  8. Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting.
Yield : about 24 bars
