Peanut Butter Bars

I found this recipe on Pinterest a while back.  Then my sister Ruth told me she made them and that they were delicious, so I decided to give them a whirl.   They are so easy to make and they are delicious! I also love that it doesn't require baking. It's too hot to turn on the oven.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars

Ingredients
1 cup butter melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (use the boxed kind, or grind them in a food processor. Tiny granules.)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 1/4 cups peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners’ sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 inch pan. In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.  (We cut the squares in half, as shown in the picture.)
