Don’t forget to try my chocolate peanut butter Christmas trees too.
Instructions:
Line a 9-inch square baking pan with foil and grease with butter; set aside.
Mix all the base ingredients together in a large bowl and spread over the bottom of the prepared pan.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat topping ingredients until melted. Stir frequently and do not overheat. Spread the peanut butter over the bottom and chill until cold (at least 4 hours).
To make cutting easier, let the bars rest at room temperature (so that the tops don’t break). Remove the bars from the foil-lined baking sheet and cut into squares with a sharp knife. Store in the refrigerator.
