Wonder Bars, a classic treat from my childhood. They are a wonder, because they are Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – homemade style. They are wonderfully tasty, but also wonderfully fattening, so proceed with caution.
Wonder Bars
- 3/4 c. margarine or butter
- 1 3/4 c. graham crackers, crushed (11 crackers)
- 1 c. peanut butter
- 2 1/2 c. powdered sugar
- 16oz. milk chocolate chips
Melt margarine, add peanut butter and mix. Add graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar to butter mixture then blend well. Pad “dough” into a 13×9 in pan. In a microwave safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Spread on top of PB mixture. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to help the chocolate set.
Kim’s tips: Doing half of this recipe in an 8×8 square pan is great for smaller families. Also, if you choose to chill your wonder bars to help the chocolate set faster, let them come back up to room temp before cutting them so that the chocolate doesn’t crack.
