PeanutButterZings

This is a recipe that my cousin gave to me. They are SUPER simple to make and taste a whole lot like a Butterfingers candy bar to me. There are only three ingredients... Graham Crackers, Peanut Butter and Dipping Chocolate:

         These are the products I used...but you can use your favorite brands.

(You'll need to have some wax paper laid out on the nearest counter to the stove to put the finished bars on to cool.)

First you break all the Graham crackers into fourths, then take the peanut butter and make little sandwiches of Graham crackers with peanut butter in the middle. You'll use the whole box of Graham crackers.

Break'em! :)



                                                             Little "sandwiches"

The next step is to just melt the chocolate in a double boiler...or if you're like me and don't own one...you can just put water in one pot about half full and put a smaller pan inside to where the bottom of the smaller pan is touching the water... then put the chocolate in the smaller pan... bring to a boil but watch it cause if the burner is too high the water may start to boil over. Stir the chocolate once heated until it's melted and smooth.

 
This is how I double boil :)




Next you'll take a pair of small tongs and dip each little sandwich into the chocolate and completely cover it with the melted chocolate, then just lay them on the wax paper until they are cooled and hardened. (You may have a few sandwiches that you don't have enough chocolate for left over, that's normal.)

                                                          mmmm...melted chocolate :)

                                                           completely covered bar
                                   


                                                          place them on the wax paper

And once they're cooled? You've got it...ENJOY them! They're fully kid approved! :)
