As I’ve confessed before, peanut butter balls are almost a staple at our house during the Christmas season.
They are one of the first things I make after Thanksgiving and we enjoy them through-out the holidays.
Imagine my shock when I discovered <gasp> that we had run out before Christmas.
Time was slipping by and I didn’t see how I could possibly make another batch. But a quick flip through my recipe file yielded this yummy substitute. The peanut butter base is very similar to the innards of a peanut butter ball and it was super quick to whip together!
Peanut Butter Bars
(recipe from my sweet and wonderful niece Sarah!)
1 cup butter
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup crushed graham crackers
4 cups powdered sugar
2 cups chocolate chips
Melt the butter. Add the peanut butter, graham crackers and powdered sugar.
Spread out on an ungreased jelly roll pan. (Your hands work best for this part!)
Melt the 2 cups of chocolate chips and spread over the peanut butter base.
Cool in refrigerator for about an hour or until the chocolate is set. Cut into small squares.
Enjoy!
