No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Cups



This recipe is from a Nestle Tollhouse dessert cookbook I have (it has such yummy stuff in it!). I love it cuz it's "no-bake" and pretty simple. I used a mini-cheesecake springfoam pan to do these last night, but you can do them in a square/rectangle pan and just cut bars.



Ingredients:



  • 2 cups peanut butter, divided


  • 3/4 cup (1 and 1/2 sticks) butter, softened


  • 2 cups powdered sugar, divided


  • 3 cups graham cracker crumbs


  • 2 cups (1 package) Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet choc. chips



  • Directions:


  • GREASE 13 x 9-inch baking pan.


  • BEAT 1 1/4 cups peanut butter and butter in large mixer bowl until creamy.


  • Gradually beat in 1 cup powdered sugar.


  • With hands or wooden spoon, work in remaining 1 cup powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs and 1/2 cup morsels.


  • Press evenly into prepared baking pan.


  • Smooth top with spatula.


  • MELT remaining 3/4 cup peanut butter and remaining 1 1/2 cups morsels in medium, heavy-duty saucepan over lowest possible heat, stirring constantly, until smooth.


  • Spread over graham cracker crust in pan.


  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until chocolate is firm.


  • Cut into bars.


  • Store in covered container in refrigerator.
