    THE BEST NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER BARS


    Source of Recipe


    Jessica J.

    List of Ingredients




    8 tablespoons (113g) unsalted butter, melted
    2 cups Ritz cracker crumbs (about 60 crackers or about 194g)
    1 1/4 cups (142g) powdered sugar
    3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter, divided
    1 cup chocolate chips

    Recipe



    Line a 9�9-inch or 9�13-inch pan with foil and spray with cooking spray. (Or you can use any size pan in between; the bigger the pan the thinner the bars.)
    Place melted butter, Ritz cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and 3/4 cup peanut butter in a large bowl. Mix by hand until combined. Press firmly into prepared pan.

    Place chocolate chips and remaining 2 tablespoons peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on 50% power in 30 second increments, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Pour over bars and spread with a spatula to evenly coat.

    Chill for at least 1 hour to set, slice into bars. **It�s best to slice them at room temperature so your chocolate doesn�t shatter.**

    These can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator, depending on how warm your house is. The chocolate will get melty if it�s too hot, so use your judgement on where you should store them.
