Chocolate Peanut Butter Slice
Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups in a slice! No baking needed which makes this very low effort and easy to prepare.
Ingredients
- 180 g (1 cup) plain biscuits, crushed finely (e.g. Vanilla Super Wine, Milk Arrowroot, Graham Crackers)*
- 120 (1 cup) icing sugar
- 115 g (½ cup) butter, melted
- 215 g (¾ cup + 2 tablespoons) peanut butter
- 180 g (1 cup) good quality chocolate (I like using dark to cut through the sweetness of the bottom layer)
Instructions
- Line a 20cm x 20cm (8 x 8) square baking tray with tin foil, making sure to overlap the sides (this makes it easier to pull the slice out once set). Set aside.
- In a medium size bowl, add biscuit crumbs, icing sugar, butter and ¾ cup of peanut butter and mix together until all ingredients are well combined. Spread into prepared baking tray.
- In a small microwave proof bowl, melt the chocolate and remaining peanut butter together (I do this in 30 second increments, stirring between each one). Once melted and combined, pour over peanut butter base and spread out with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares (for a smooth, clean cut slice this with a warm, dry knife).
Notes
This slice is best when stored in the fridge and will keep for a week in an air tight container. It freezes well too
* The finer you get your biscuit crumbs, the less coarse and more smooth the slice will be.
