No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars for 16

Instructions:

1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to create a sling for easy removal.
2. In a large bowl, stir together the melted butter, 1 cup of peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
3. Gradually fold in the graham cracker crumbs until the mixture forms a thick dough.
4. Press the peanut butter mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan until the surface is completely flat.
5. In a microwave-safe glass bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter. Heat in 30-second bursts, stirring vigorously between intervals, until smooth and glossy.
6. Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter base and spread evenly to the edges with a spatula.
7. Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour until the chocolate is firm.
8. Lift the block out of the pan using the parchment sling and slice into 16 equal squares with a sharp knife.
