Is there anything that goes together better in this world than chocolate and peanut butter?!?
Especially rich dark chocolate with creamy, salty peanut butter?
I think not.
I mean...the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup has been around for almost 100 years for a reason!
For these peanut butter bars a creamy layer of peanut butter, butter, and gluten free graham crackers is topped with velvety-smooth chocolate. Yum! Plus, they are so simple to make- there's really no excuse not to!
I bet these will quickly become a new family favorite! Perfect for the holidays or a random Sunday afternoon!
So, I began with Sally's No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars and made a few tweaks of my own. Her version called for 2 cups of powdered sugar. Yowza- that's a lot, especially considering graham crackers are already sweet! I only used 1/4 cup of powdered sugar. I also added some Greek yogurt for more protein and to add a little more volume, since I removed so much of the sugar.
These no-bake peanut butter bars make the perfect sweet bite! For ease of cutting, I recommend freezing for at least 30 minutes. Actually, I recommend storing them in the freezer!
Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. These will keep for up to 1 week in the fridge and at least 2 weeks in the freezer!
Sally began her baking blog in 2011 as a way to share her baking recipes with family and friends. Originally called Sally's Baking Addiction, it now goes by Sally's Baking Recipes. Here, she shares well-tested recipes for baked goods, mostly desserts. While beautiful and delicious, she does not provide gluten free recipes, except for a few that don't use any flour.
For a simple, yet decadent sweet treat, these Sally's no bake chocolate peanut butter bars are now gluten free and made with a lot less sugar!
