Chocolate Peanut butter bars

We can rarely come across desserts or sweets which can be healthy too and is also less time consuming. Here is one such recipe, which is highly nutritious, easy to make and can fill the hearts of everyone who takes the first bite. It simply melts in the mouth and is too yummy for words. It is ideal fo your kids snack box. Enjoy.

Ingredients

200g digestive biscuits (graham crackers)
1/3 cup  unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup  crunchy or creamy peanut butter
Chocolate Layer
200 g bittersweet chocolate
1/4 cupcreamy peanut butter, divided

Directions

Place the biscuits (or graham crackers if used) into the bowl of a food processor and blend until crumbs form. Add peanut butter and melted butter and process until completely combined and the mixture holds together.
Slightly grease a 8x8 inch (20x20cm) square pan and line with parchment paper, in such a way that some edges are longer to make it easy to lift it up once it's set.
Spread the peanut butter mixture into the prepared baking pan and press with the back of the spoon to create a smooth surface.
Melt chocolate and 2 tbsp  of creamy peanut butter over bain marie, over low heat. Stir until smooth. Meanwhile place the other 2 tbsp  of peanut butter into a small sauce pan over low heat and stir until melted and smooth. Spread the chocolate over peanut butter layer. Add teaspoons of melted peanut butter on top and with a knife create swirls on the surface.
Refrigerate for 2 hours to set. Let it sit 10 minutes at room temperature before cutting. Bars can be frozen well. Enjoy!
