Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Bars: A No-Bake Classic
Ingredients:
Ingredient Quantity
Unsalted butter, melted 1 cup
Creamy peanut butter 1 cup
Powdered sugar 2 cups
Graham cracker crumbs 2 cups
Semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 ½ cups
Directions:
Make the Peanut Butter Base: In a large bowl, combine the melted butter and creamy peanut butter. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated.
Mix in Dry Ingredients: Add powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs to the peanut butter mixture. Stir well until a thick, dough-like consistency forms.
Press Into Pan: Firmly press the mixture into a 9×13-inch baking pan, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon or your hands to create an even layer.
Melt the Chocolate: Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and silky smooth.
Add Chocolate Topping: Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter base and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Chill to Firm Up: Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours until the chocolate layer is set and firm.
Slice and Serve: Once chilled, cut into squares and enjoy!
