Reese’s Peanut Butter No-Bake Bars Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Peanut Butter Layer:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
For the Chocolate Layer:
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
Instructions:
- Prepare the Peanut Butter Layer:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
- Prepare the Chocolate Layer:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and ¼ cup peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
- Alternatively, you can melt the mixture using a double boiler on the stovetop.
- Assemble the Bars:
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer in the baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Chill:
- Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the bars are fully set.
- Slice and Serve:
- Once set, lift the bars out of the dish using the parchment paper. Cut into squares or rectangles.
- Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Tips:
- Graham Cracker Crumbs: You can make your own by crushing graham crackers in a food processor or with a rolling pin.
- Customize: Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the chocolate layer for a sweet-and-salty twist.
- Storage: These bars can be stored in the fridge for up to a week or frozen for longer storage.
