Reese's Peanut Butter Bars

This is part three of three of Mike's care package: Reese's Peanut Butter Bars. Okay so I LOVE making these because they are so easy it is ridiculous! Plus, they taste EXACTLY like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups this recipe is scary accurate. So when I made these I was transporting them to another state so I cut them up into squares and wrapped each individual one in plastic wrap and kept them in the fridge to keep the chocolate from melting but even if you aren't planning on traveling with these I still think its a good idea to wrap them individually because it seems more convenient and you can pack them in your lunch or take one on the go.  So the recipe cake from Let's Dish and it is excellent and easy!

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER BARS:
Ingredients:

-1 cup butter melted
-2 cups graham cracker crumbs
-2 cups confectioners' sugar
-1 cup + 4 tablespoons 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 9x13 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. And as I would recommend wrap each square in plastic wrap and keep refrigerated.
