Peanut Butter Crunchy Bars

My co-worker Ramona shared this recipe and it reminded me of the PB treats that schools serve.

Peanut Butter Crunchy Bars

2 cubes of butter (must be butter, no margarine,etc)

3 c. peanut butter  (creamy works best)

4 1/2 c. powdered sugar

5 1/2 c. rice crispies (can use gluten free)

3 bags of Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips

• soften (not melt) butter
• mix butter and peanut butter
• add sugar--mix
• add rice crispies--mix
• press in pan (13 x 18 in--like jelly roll pan) OR 1/2 the recipe will make a 8x13 pan
• melt chocolate--spread on top
• refrigerate--2 min. should be enough to set
