Ingredients
  • 2 cups vegan graham cracker crumbs (Note 1)
  • 1 cup organic powdered sugar
  • ¾ cup vegan butter, melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (Note 2)
For Topping
Instructions
  1. Line the bottom and sides of an 8 x 8 inch or 9 x 9 inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil.

  2. Stir the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, and melted vegan butter together in a large mixing bowl.

  3. Stir in the peanut butter.

  4. Firmly press the mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.

  5. To make the topping, place the chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave them in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and the ingredients are fully combined (Note 3).

  6. Spread the topping evenly over the graham cracker mixture.

  7. Place the baking dish into the refrigerator. Chill the bars until they are fully set, about 2 hours.

  8. Once fully chilled, remove the bars from the pan, then slice and serve.

Recipe Notes
  1. You will need about 14 whole graham crackers to make 2 cups of crumbs.
  2. I don't recommend using natural (runny) peanut butter for this recipe, as the bars may not hold together as well. I used Skippy brand.
  3. You can also melt the chocolate in a double boiler on the stove, if preferred.
