No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars are an easy layered dessert.
Ingredients
For the Peanut Butter Layer:
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled

- Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, mix melted butter and peanut butter until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and mix until fully combined.
- Gradually add graham cracker crumbs, mixing until a thick, uniform mixture forms.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan to create the base layer.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with peanut butter in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.

- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
- Lift out using parchment paper and slice into bars.
Notes
You can top these bars with crushed peanuts or drizzle extra melted chocolate for a decorative finish. For a softer texture, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
