Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

Ingredients

• 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
• 1 cup melted butter (2 sticks)
• 4 cups confectioners sugar
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (6-7 crackers)
• 2 cups (12oz) semisweet chocolate chips (melted)

Instructions

Coat a 10x15 rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl combine all ingredients except chocolate chips. Spread peanut butter mixture over baking sheet. Smooth down and spread out as evenly as possible. Spread melted chocolate evenly over peanut butter. Score bars with a butter knife, then set flat in freezer for 15 minutes. Break apart squares on scored lines. Serve or cover and keep chilled until ready to serve.

You really need to make sure you score, or partially cut the candy before freezing it, because it's nearly impossible to cut right afterward. These are also very rich & sweet, so they can be cut small and still be a yummy treat.

Also, you can buy graham cracker crumbs and just mix them right in. But if you don't have graham cracker crumbs you can easily make your own. Just crush 6-7 graham crackers and make your own homemade graham cracker crumbs.
