  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon butter


Instructions

  1. Line a 9 x 9 inch baking pan with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. Blend the peanut butter and melted butter using an electric mixer.
  3. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, blending until just combined.
  4. Press the mixture into the prepared pan using a rubber spatula or damp hands.
  5. Refrigerate the base for 20 minutes until slightly firm.
  6. Melt the chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of butter in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until fully melted.
