    Reese's Peanut Butter Bars


    Source of Recipe


    1 Comfort Foods

    List of Ingredients




    2 sticks (1 cup) margarine, melted
    2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
    1 cup chunky peanut butter
    1 cup graham cracker crumbs
    12 oz milk chocolate (chocolate chips or chocolate bar works good)

    Recipe



    Line a 9x13" pan with parchment or wax paper.

    Mix 2 sticks of butter, powdered sugar, peanut butter, and graham
    cracker crumbs. Spread mixture on the bottom of the pan.

    Melt chocolate and spread over mixture in pan. Let set in a cool
    place. Remove from pan and cut into desired shapes.

    Melting Chocolate:
    You can melt the chocolate either in the microwave or in a double
    boiler.

    In a Microwave Oven
    Place coarsely chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe container and microwave at MEDIUM (50 percent power) for 1 1/2 to 4 minutes, until
    the chocolate turns shiny. Remove the container from the microwave
    and stir the chocolate until completely melted. Stir milk and white chocolates after about 1 1/2 minutes. Because of their milk proteins, they need to be stirred sooner than dark chocolate. (If overheated,
    these chocolates may become grainy.)

    In a Double Boiler
    Place coarsely chopped chocolate in the top of a double boiler over
    hot, not simmering, water. Melt the chocolate, stirring until smooth. Remove the top part of the double boiler from the bottom
