DIRECTIONS
Line the bottom of a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with graham crackers. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, confectioners' sugar and peanut butter until smooth. Spread over the graham crackers, and chill until firm, about 15 minutes.
Melt chocolate chips in a bowl over simmering water or in the microwave oven, stirring frequently. Spread over the layer of chilled peanut butter mixture. Refrigerate until firm, then cut into squares. These keep well placed between sheets of waxed paper in an air-tight container in the fridge.

Mmm! This has a very smooth center, making it different from all of the other peanut butter bars. I made a graham cracker crust with g.c. crumbs and butter, only because I didn't have graham crackers on hand--it is delicious! I stuck it in the freezer after putting it together, and it was set and ready to eat in minutes!

I'm giving this 5 stars because the peanut butter filling was wonderful. I didn't have whole graham crackers, so I used some graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter to make a baked graham cracker crust. When that cooled, I prepared and spread the peanut butter mixture over it. I followed THAT part of the recipe exactly, and was very very impressed with the texture and taste of the final product - tasted very much like "real" peanut butter cup peanut butter. I really liked the crust underneath the peanut butter and chocolate, and will make it again exactly as I did before. It's an extra step, but well worth it, in my opinion.

These are VERY good and easy. The whole graham crackers make the topchocolate layer crack after they have set because they still shift underneath while cutting. Will make it with crushed grhams and butter as crust next time.

Certainly not low in calories, but EXCELLENT and EASY. I don't understand the 50 hr. wait time in the recipe....I served them the next day and they got rave reviews. I know I will make these again and again....NO baking required! I added some extra baking chocolate and 1/2 cup rice krispies to the chocolate.....

This is THE best bar I've ever made. My family loved it. They didn't last long in the fridge!

This recipie is so good and super easy. I served it to a group of teenage boys and they all said they were incredible. I think that next time I make them (and I'll be making them often!) I'm going to make a crust out of chocolate graham gracker crumbs and butter instead of the plain graham crackers. These are a must try!

These were so easy and so good! I sent a batch to work with my hubby and they sent my empty plate back with a note saying "thank-you and please refill!". Big hit and they are soooo easy.

This is a VERY quick and TASTY treat. I used smooth peanut butter (as this was all I had on hand) so my creamed mixture spread quite easily. I also used graham crumbs as other users suggeted. YUM, YUM. Was ready to eat in under an hour.

Fabulous! A little bit of a pain to spread on the gram crackers but the end result is worth it. Very rich so cut in small squares.I put them in the freezer before and after the chocolate topping. made it easy to cut and quick to serve. Crackers stay nice and crisp even though they are kept in the fridge after you cut them. I like that!
