Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Cookie Bars
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (for drizzling, optional)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, mix together melted butter and graham cracker crumbs until well combined.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
In a separate bowl, mix together powdered sugar and 1 1/2 cups of creamy peanut butter until smooth.
Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust in the baking pan.
Sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the peanut butter layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
If desired, melt the remaining 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter and drizzle it over the cooled bars.
Once the bars are completely cooled and the peanut butter drizzle has set, cut into squares.
Serve and enjoy these delicious Peanut Butter Lunch Lady Cookie Bars!
