Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
My mom would make these Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars for us a lot when I was growing up because we were always requesting them.
They are so addicting! I always wanted a big glass of chocolate milk with mine. You can never have too much chocolate.
These Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars remind me of Reese's Peanut Butter cups. Which happen to be my favorite candy!
