Okay all you Chocolate and Peanut butter Fans...here's a healthier Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bar Recipe!
Ingredients
• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1 cup peanut natural peanut butter
• 4 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips ( I used 71% cocoa)
• 1 1/2 cups sucanat
Directions
1. Pour sucanat into blender (I used my Vitamix) and place on high speed for 10-15 seconds to create a “powdered” sugar. (Yes, it really is THAT easy!)
2. In a medium bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs, powdered sucanat, peanut butter and melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan. Melt chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring occasionally. Spread melted chocolate over the crumb crust. Chill for about 5-10 minutes, then cut into bars before the chocolate is completely set, then chill until ready to serve.
