Ingredients

Servings
  • ¾ cup salted butter melted
  • 1 ¼ cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups Graham cracker crumbs about 11 graham cracker sheets
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ cups milk chocolate chips
  • ½ teaspoon vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch square pan with aluminum foil.
  2. If using sheets of graham crackers, place them in a storage bag. Crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin. Set aside.
  3. Place the butter and peanut butter into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute and stir until the peanut butter is incorporated.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and stir in until combined.
  5. Place the graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar into the butter/peanut butter mixture. Stir with a spatula until everything is incorporated.
  6. Place the crumb mixture into the prepared pan and press it firmly and evenly into the bottom.
  7. In a small microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals and stir after each interval until the chocolate is completely smooth. My chocolate took 3 intervals of 30 seconds to melt and smooth out.
  8. Pour the chocolate onto the crumb mixture and smooth out. Make sure it is spread to all the edges.
  9. Refrigerate for 1 – 2 hours or until the chocolate top is firm. Cut into squares and serve.
  10. Store in an airtight container or covered with plastic wrap at room temperature or for a firmer bar in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container or ziploc-style storage bag. They can be stored at room temperature or for a firmer bar in the refrigerated. They will last from 7 to 14 days.
  • Freezing: Place in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. Freeze them for 2-3 months. Then, eat straight from the freezer or let them thaw on the counter  for 1 to 2 hours or overnight in the fridge.
