Frozen Peanut Butter Bars

Ingredients:
1 cup butter or margarine
2 cups peanut butter - creamy or chunky
2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (2 pkg graham crackers)
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
2 cups chocolate chips, semi-sweet or milk chocolate
1/3 cup milk

Directions:
In a large saucepan, melt butter/margarine and peanut butter together over low/medium heat. Mix well. Remove from heat. Add graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar, mixing well. Spread peanut butter mixture in a jelly roll pan (for thinner bars), or 9x13 pan (for thicker bars). Chill. When the peanut butter layer is firm, melt chocolate chips with milk over low heat. Spread over chilled peanut butter mixture. Chill again.

You can leave them in the pan or cut them into serving size bars. You can wrap them individually or freeze in layers in a large rigid container or gallon sized zip-loc freezer bags -- separate layers with wax paper so they don't freeze/stick together. Then freeze.

Eat straight from freezer, or thaw slightly. You can also keep the whole pan in the fridge if they are going to be eaten right away.

*I usually line the pan with wax paper before spreading the peanut butter mixture in the pan, it just makes it easier to slice and pop them out of the pan that way. You can use a 50/50 mixture of semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips or just whatever you have on hand. They are good no matter what.
