CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER TREATS – The Southern Lady Cooks

If you love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, you are going to love these little treats!

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We love rice krispie treats, and these are made differently, but you still get the delicious marshmallow cream. It’s spread on top of the honey graham crackers that are mixed with peanut butter and powdered sugar. So good and so easy! These are perfect for any gathering, especially a small one, since they are made in an 8X8. Plus you can’t go wrong with a no bake treat!

SWAPS

You could do a few swaps on this dish, you could use semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips or butterscotch. We added nuts on top; you can leave those off. We like the crunchy peanut butter, but I am sure the smooth would work as well. We haven’t tried this with almond butter, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

• 18 honey graham cracker squares crushed
• 1 stick of butter melted or 8 tablespoons
• 1 2/3 cups powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
• 1 7 1/2 ounce jar marshmallow fluff
• 1 cup dark chocolate morsels can use whatever chocolate chips you like or even use butterscotch chips

• Crush the crackers and put in large bowl.(I put them in a plastic ziplock bag and crush with rolling pin). Melt the butter and add to crumbs. Mix well with spoon.

• Stir in the powdered sugar and peanut butter.  Mix well and press into a greased 8 inch square pan.

• Remove the top from the marshmallow fluff and heat in microwave in the jar until  you can spread over crumb mixture evenly. (You have to watch it constantly or it will come out of the jar.)

• Next, melt the chocolate chips in microwave until they can be spread over the marshmallow.  Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours until you can cut evenly with a knife.  Cut into squares or bars.

I keep these refrigerated.
