No Bake Peanut Butter & Chocolate Bars
jNext to chips and guacamole, peanut butter and chocolate are two of my absolute favorite food pairings. But nothing compares to the dense peanut butter base as the anchor for a layer of melted milk chocolate. These no-bake peanut butter and chocolate bars are a favorite for my middle child so I pull this out of the archives for his post-finals return home in a few days!
These chocolate and peanut butter bars require no oven so it’s a fun recipe to introduce to your kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews or husbands. My sister made these with her niece and nephews years ago and they are a favorite everytime she visits.
The absence of an oven also increases my recipe success too! And, the chilled temperature to set the chocolate make them a great summer treat!
The smaller the pan, the thicker the bar. Just look at that layer of chocolate on top of a big slab of peanut butter infused with powdered sugar, crushed graham crackers and butter.
I actually cut the square bars into smaller sizes than what is shown below. It’s a visual trick that if you cut them in half you can have twice as many. Right?
These no-bake peanut butter and chocolate bars are perfect for holiday treats. The dense base makes them them travel-friendly if delivering by sidewalk or car.
