I love no bake recipes! Quick, easy and no oven required. These Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars have a thick base layer of sweet and salty mixture of peanut butter and graham cracker and peanut butter chocolate layer on top. Who can resist them?!

Easy and super quick, no bake chocolate peanut butter bar recipe, made with just 5 ingredients. Decadent and fudgy, these bars can be the perfect snack or dessert.

No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

They are that simple!

All you need is: butter, graham cracker crumbs, peanut butter, confectioners’ sugar and some chocolate. You probably have already these ingredients in your pantry!

There is just a little bit of work: to crush some graham crackers for the base, mix it with peanut butter and melted butter. Spread the base mix layer onto a square pan lined with some baking paper. One more step before refrigerating: melt some butter and mix with peanut butter to make the chocolate top layer. Add top layer to the pan, level it gently and refrigerate.

And I know you’re going to ask if they taste like Reese’s peanut butter cup! YES, they certainly do!

Just remember to take out the pan 10-15 minutes before serving them, so it is easier to cut into bars. You can cut generous bars or you can have bite-sized pieces.
