This week I have decided to change it up a little on the blog.
Since it is the week before Valentine's Day, I am going to focus my kitchen energies on all things chocolate! This came about when Studhubs (aka my husband John) asked me if he could play in the kitchen on Saturday. I said "Only if you photograph it and do a guest post on my blog." He agreed and the rest will be Kitchen Wife history! *lol*

Peanut Butter – Chocolate
Do I need to say anymore?
Both are something that I loved my entire life, and what
could be better than the two combined?
There are many different recipes, and in the future I will
do another version of this recipe, but this one is very quick and easy, great
for when time and energy is not abundant.
Easy No Bake Peanut Butter Bars:
*Prep Time: 20 min. *Cook Time: 1-2 hr Chill *Difficulty: Easy *Servings: 10-12 bars
Ingredients:
- 2 sleeves of Graham Crackers, crushed
- 2 c. Powdered sugar
- 1 c. Peanut Butter
- 2 sticks of Butter, melted
- 1 12 oz. package of Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Start by taking 2 packs of Graham crackers, minus one...go ahead and slap some Peanut Butter on it and enjoy for a immediate treat! LOL
For the rest of the Graham Crackers, put in a blender and pulse until there is nothing but crumbs,
Pour into a mixing bowl.
Take 2 sticks of butter, put into small pot on stove, and melt.
Into mixing bowl, add 2 cups of powdered sugar.
Into mixing bowl, and heaping cup of peanut butter.

Put glass bowl on top of pot of water, this will melt the
