Peanut Butter Bars





 INGREDIENTS

113g unsalted butter

194 g Ritz cracker crumbs 

1 1/4 cups 142g powdered sugar

3/4 cup  + 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter 

divided

1 cup chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS

Line a 9x9-inch or 9x13-inch pan with foil and spray 

with cooking spray. 

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.
