Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14 oz) graham crackers
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for consistency)
- Additional peanut butter for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Peanut Butter Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and brown sugar.
- Mix until smooth and well combined.
-
Make the Graham Cracker Sandwiches:
- Take one graham cracker and spread a generous layer of the peanut butter mixture over it.
- Top with another graham cracker to form a sandwich.
- Repeat this process until you have used up all the graham crackers.
-
Chill the Sandwiches:
- Place the filled graham crackers in the refrigerator to set for about 30 minutes.
-
Melt the Chocolate:
- While the filled crackers are chilling, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) together in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth.
-
Dip the Sandwiches:
- Retrieve the graham cracker sandwiches from the fridge.
- Quickly dip each sandwich into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s coated evenly.
- Place the chocolate-covered sandwiches on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
-
Optional Drizzle:
- If desired, drizzle additional peanut butter over the top of each chocolate-coated graham cracker.
-
Let the Chocolate Set:
- Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature or place the sandwiches in the fridge for faster setting.
-
Serve:
- Once the chocolate has hardened, slice the sandwiches into squares or serve them whole.
Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
- Optional toppings: For an extra touch, sprinkle crushed nuts or a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate before it sets.
