My cousin is in big trouble for sending this recipe my way. These taste EXACTLY like Reese's Peanut Butter cups, but with TWICE the amount of Peanut Butter...just how I prefer them. I am always so excited at easter and Christmas because they sell the Reese's eggs and christmas trees, which both have double the peanut butter. Now, finally, I have the homemade version and I don't have to wait for those holidays to get what I really want!
Reese's Peanut Butter Bars
2 cubes margarine
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
4 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
In a large, microwave-safe bowl, melt margarine. Remove from microwave and add peanut butter and powdered sugar. With an electric mixer, mix until combined. Grease a 9x13 pan and spread peanut butter mixture into bottom of pan evenly.
Melt chocolate chips in a microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Pour over peanut butter mixture and refrigerate for at least 1 hour prior to serving.

Hooray! I'm famous, glad that they made it on the blog! So glad you liked them (maybe a little too much:)So delish, I might have to whip these up tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI made these and they were perfect for our chocolate-peanut butter fix--especially since they don't sell Reese's anything where we live. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteIs a cube of butter a whole stick? (1/2 cup)
ReplyDeleteJodi...yes that is a whole stick. So 2 sticks of butter total! Sorry bad habit of mine to call it a "cube"! Good luck!
