List of Ingredients




2 packages (10 ounces each) peanut butter pieces
1/3 cup butter or margarine
2 cans (14 ounces each) sweetened condensed milk
2 cups finely ground honey graham-cracker crumbs (15 whole crackers)
11/2 cups unsalted peanuts, finely chopped
1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate pieces




Recipe



1. Line 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan with foil.
2. Melt peanut butter pieces and butter in small saucepan or bowl set over hot water until smooth. Spoon into large bowl. Whisk in sweetened condensed milk.
