Looking for something delicious and easy to make? Look no further then these Reese's Peanut Butter Bars! They do not require baking but they do need a stove or microwave to melt some things. They also need an hour to refrigerate. If you make your own gram cracker crumbs I would suggest using something other than a mini food processor. It takes WAY too long to make 2 cups worth with a mini one which I unfortunately know from experience. :P
I got this recipe third hand from Pinterest. I believe the original source is this one from Let's Dish. I switched butter with butter flavored Crisco and I used dairy free chocolate chips.
Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars
Ingredients
1 cup butter flavored Crisco plus 2 tablespoons water melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (use the boxed kind, or grind them in a food processor. Tiny granules.)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup + 4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet dairy free chocolate chips
1 cup butter flavored Crisco plus 2 tablespoons water melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (use the boxed kind, or grind them in a food processor. Tiny granules.)
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup + 4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet dairy free chocolate chips
Directions
In a medium bowl, mix together the melted crisco and water, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners’ sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9×13 inch pan. In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the 4 tablespoons peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.

My family loved my dairy free version of these delicious bars, even my dad!

I took some bars, cut them in half and brought a container of them to work. My coworkers ate all of them up very quickly and they couldn't believe were dairy free!
