Reeses Squares (No Bake)

This recipe will singlehandedly knock me off of any diet that I am attempting at the time. I simply can not resist it!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 lb confectioners' sugar (about 3 cups)
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 cup butter, melted
1 (12 oz) bag of chocolate chips

First, put about 1 and 1/2 packages of graham crackers into a gallon sized baggie then put this whole thing inside another baggie and give to the nearest energetic child, along with instructions to "crush 'em to crumbs"! (Or you can buy graham cracker crumbs already crushed in the baking aisle of your grocery store).

Combine graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, pb and melted butter in a large bowl. Spread into a 9x13 pan.

Melt chocolate chips in a glass bowl in the microwave (stir every 30 seconds until smooth). Spread melted chocolate over gooey goodness in pan and place in fridge. After chocolate starts to set up, take out and cut into squares, but leave them in the pan and put back in fridge. For as long as you can stand it. Then enjoy!
