Easy Peanut Butter Chocolate Candy Bars

Bottom layer:

• 1 stick butter
• 1 cup peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
• 2 3/4 cups powdered sugar

Top layer:

• 1 cup chocolate chips (milk, dark or semi-sweet
• 2 tablespoons butter

In a glass bowl, microwave butter and peanut butter until melted. Stir in powdered sugar (mixture will be stiff and you may need to mix it with clean hands). Pat mixture into an 11 x 7-inch glass dish.

Melt chocolate pieces and 2 tablespoons of butter in microwave safe bowl. Do this in short cycles, 10 seconds, stir, 10 seconds, stir, 10 seconds, stir, until melted.

Spread chocolate mixture over peanut butter layer. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30-60 minutes to allow chocolate to set. Bring to room temperature and cut into small pieces.

Don’t try to cut the candy when it’s cold. The chocolate layer on top will crumble.
