OMG! No Bake Peanut Butter Cup Squares!!

 These rich little guys were what I served for dessert along with Pumpkin Pie for Thanksgiving.

I thought I'd share the recipe... Making them yesterday, actually was my first time and they were pretty successful. Yours can be too!!

 I found this recipe on A Beautiful Mess sometime last week and knew I wanted to make them sometime in the future...

Here's what you'll need:

a square (8x8) pan

3/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups graham crackers, crushed
1/4 cup chopped peanuts
1 1/2 cups powdered (confectioners) sugar
3/4 cup butter, melted and cooled
1 cup chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)
1/2 tablespoon canola or vegetable oil
1 cup chopped peanut butter cups

 First, start by mixing up the first five ingredients on the list, then spread them into your buttered (or sprayed) pan.

 next: Microwave the chocolate chips with the oil for 30 seconds.

Take it out and stir..

Microwave for another 30 seconds

mix until liquidy

(microwave for more time is necessary)

Pour the chocolate over the peanut butter mix. Be sure to get all edges!!

Chop up the peanut butter cups as you please and place them on top of all of it.

Put in the freezer for an hour and a half minimum, or until solid. Overnight is fine as well...

And enjoy! xo. O
