- 1/2 cup crunchy or creamy peanut butter
- optional melted white and dark chocolate chips
- optional chopped peanuts, shredded coconut, mini chocolate chips, or other add-ins of choice
Instructions
- Line an 8-inch pan with parchment paper. If your nut butter is not stir-able, gently warm it until it can be easily stirred. Melt the chips carefully in intervals until smooth. Combine melted chips and peanut butter, stirring until smooth. Fold in any optional add-ins. Pour the mixture into the pan, smoothing it out. Optional: swirl melted chocolate on top. Freeze for 10 minutes until firm. Cut into squares and enjoy!

- Tip 3: Serve these bars with a side of fresh fruit or a dollop of whipped cream to balance the sweetness.

- Tip 5: For a decadent treat, layer a chocolate ganache on top before chilling.
