Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chocolate.
  • To make the ganache ahead of time, let it cool completely and then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • When you're ready to use the ganache, let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the temperature of the ganache by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If the ganache holds its shape, it's ready.
  • For a fun twist, try adding a layer of chopped nuts or dried fruit to the ganache before pouring it over the peanut butter bars.
