Prep 15 min Serves 16 Source

Ingredients

115g / 1/2 cup / 1 US stick melted salted butter ((or unsalted butter + 1/4 tsp salt))
1 cup crushed Arnott's Marie crackers (11 crackers) or graham cracker crumbs (8 crackers) (Note 1)
1 cup icing sugar / powdered sugar
3/4 cup peanut butter ((smooth))
1 cup dark chocolate chips - the melting kind ((US: semi sweet) (Note 2))
2 tbsp peanut butter ((smooth))

Steps

1
Butter and line a 8" / 20cm square dish or pan with baking paper.
2
Place the Base ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Press into the prepared pan.
3
Melt the Topping ingredients (I do it in the microwave in 2 x 30 second bursts). Pour and spread over the Base - smooth the top or do swirls (see photos for examples of each).
4
Refrigerate until set - about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from fridge, allow to come to room temp slightly (so top cuts neatly). Cut into 16 squares (or whatever shape you want!). Best served at room temperature.
