American Baker in Germany

 I'm a big fan of recipes that are fast and easy and taste amazing. Added bonus: it tastes like peanut butter. No Bake Peanut Butter Bars: 1/2 cup (125g) melted butter 1 cup (120g) butter cookie crumbs 2 cups (250g) powdered sugar 1 cup + 2 tbsp (280g) peanut butter 1 cup (180g) chocolate chips Line an 8x8 inch square baking pan with baking paper. Mix melted butter, cookie crumbs, powdered sugar and 1 cup (250g) peanut butter in a bowl and press into prepared pan.  Melt remaining peanut butter and chocolate chips together and spread on top.  Allow to stand until chocolate is completely set up. Remove from pan by lifting the baking sheet out completely and removing the paper. Cut into pieces. These peanut butter bars are super decadent and are perfect for the peanut butter lover.  Watch us make this easy recipe on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/hOgRSXPx3ZQ Schaut zu wie wir dieses leichte Rezept auf unserem YouTube Kanal machen hier: https://youtu.be/0Hcmm...
