Peanut butter squares

Last week for my recipe I made Peanut butter squares.
I am just now posting because I have been really sick all week long. :(
I am feeling a little better but still not ready to cook my project for this week.

So here is last weeks recipe for Peanut Butter Squares!
Recipe by Heat Oven to 350

INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (we get some at whole foods that don't have any dairy or soy in them and then I crushed them myself)
3 1/4 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 bag semi sweet chocolate chips (we use the enjoy life brand)
2 Tablespoons butter*

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Combine the graham cracker crumbs and the powdered sugar in a large bowl.
2. add the peanut butter and melted butter and mix well.
3. Pour the mixture into a 9x13 pan and freeze for 20 minutes or until firm.
4. While the peanut butter mixture is cooling, you can microwave or use a double boiler to melt your chocolate chips and 1-2 Tablespoons of butter. I use a double boiler insert. Don't forget to add the butter to the chocolate or else it hardens too fast and is crunchy and breaks off when eating the peanut butter squares.)
5. Pour the chocolate over the peanut butter mixture and spread evenly. Put the bars in the fridge and when teh chocolate is set take out and cut into squares.

These are super good!!!

Me mixing up the ingredients.

This is my little sister helping me. She is 4.


These are crumbly because I forgot to add the butter to the chocolate but they still tasted really good.
