Peanut Butter Ball Bars

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup butter 2 sticks, softened
  • 1 cup peanut butter crunchy or smooth
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 (12-ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS :
Line an 8×8 pan with aluminum foil and lightly spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
In the bowl of a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, combine the butter and peanut butter until smooth. Add the graham cracker crumbs and mix well. Add the powdered sugar and mix well. A soft dough will form. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. In another bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave using 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval. Microwave until the chips are nearly melted but not all the way, then stir until they melt the rest of the way to prevent them from being scorched. Spread the chocolate on top and allow to cool completely or place in the refrigerator to cool faster. Once the chocolate is firm, lift the foil out of the pan and peel it away from the bars. Slice into 1 inch squares and store in an airtight container.
