Yesterday we had no school on account of the torrential rain the night before that inundated the entire town. Literally, I went for a run and I fell in a newly formed lake of water in the middle of the road that went past my belly button. The power even went out on Sunday, and it got me thinking of no bake recipes (recipes that don’t require an oven). Since peanut butter and chocolate is a classically good combination, I decided to make no bakes with that in mind.
Recipe:
Ingredients
¾ plus ½ cups peanut butter, divided
 |
| Action Shot! |
6 tablespoons softened butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 2/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup plus ¾ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
Grease an 8 by 8 inch baking pan. Beat ¾ cup peanut butter and the butter in a large bowl until creamy. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar. Afterwards, mix in the graham cracker crumbs and 1/3 cup of the chocolate chips. Press this mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Making sure to smooth the top.

| Melted chocolate before hardened |
Melt the last ½ cup peanut butter and ¾ cup chocolate chips on low heat in a saucepan. Stir constantly until the whole mixture is smooth. Then, spread this mixture evenly over the mixture already in the pan. Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour until chocolate if firm.
Cut into bars and store in a container in the refrigerator.
