PEANUT BUTTER GRAHAM BARS (NO-BAKE)



Peanut Butter Graham Bars (No-Bake) image

This is about the closest you will ever get to a Reese's peanut butter cup! I prefer to process the graham cracker crumbs in the processor for this recipe otherwise I find them to be to "gritty" but that is optional, use only salted peanuts only for this and please do not omit them, they must be processed in a food processor until very finely chopped but don't over process or you will have peanut butter lol!! Yield is only estimated it will depend on the size of the squares. Prep time does not include chilling time.
