From the title I’m guessing anyone with peanut allergies knows that this recipe is not safe for them. That my friends, is my disclaimer. Being someone who loves peanut butter and chocolate, but is trying to avoid pouring so much money into constantly getting Reese’s, I decided to try my hand at peanut butter squares, and I must say, I think I did a sweet job.

Ingredients:

1 cup peanut butter 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

1 1/3 confectioner’s sugar 1 cup Heavy cream

1 stick butter, melted 8 oz. semi-sweet baking chocolate

nonstick cooking spray

Instructions:

Spray an 8X8 pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioner’s sugar and butter. Press into baking pan.

Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until bubbles start to form.

Chop the chocolate and mix into the cream. Whisk until the chocolate is melted and smooth.

Pour the chocolate over the peanut butter mixture and refrigerate for 45 minutes - hour or until the chocolate is cooled.

Cut into squares.
