Let’s Make It Together

Prepare Your Workspace: Gather all ingredients and tools like mixing bowls and a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This keeps everything organized as you bake.

Create the Peanut Butter Filling: In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. You’ll know it’s ready when it looks luscious and inviting.

Assemble the Graham Crackers: Spread an even layer of the peanut butter mixture onto half of the graham crackers. Top each with another cracker to create little sandwiches filled with creamy goodness.

Melt the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips in 30-second intervals until smooth. Stir gently to avoid burning; you want it silky!

Dip and Decorate: Carefully dip each graham cracker sandwich halfway into the melted chocolate. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing them back on parchment paper to set.

Chill and Enjoy!: Pop your creations into the fridge for about 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely. Then serve them up at your next gathering – or keep them all to yourself (no judgment here!).
