Time 45m

Yield 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 lb powdered sugar (4 cups)
11 graham crackers, finely crushed
1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
2 -7 ounces Hershey Bars (bars used to be 8 oz. So you can use 2 1/2 7 oz bars, if you wish)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients (except chocolate) in a bowl (with hands like meat loaf).
  • Note: The more you mix it with your hands,the less messy it gets & comes off your hands easier.
  • Dump it in a 13x9-inch pan.
  • Pound it, pat it (spank) firmly in pan.
  • Melt chocolate in a double boiler.
  • Pour melted chocolate over mixture in 13x9-inch pan.
  • Bang pan flat on counter (it'll smooth out the chocolate).
  • Refrigerate approximately 40 minutes or until it starts to harden.
  • Then cut into approximately 8 rows & then across.
  • I cut this into bite size pieces.
  • (I use a pizza cutter. It really works well).
  • Put back in refrigerator for a few hours or overnight.
  • Best if kept refrigerated.
