Satisfy your chocolate and peanut butter cravings in less than 30 minutes with these Reese’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars!

I know. Back-to-back chocolate and peanut butter recipes. What’s a girl to do? I’ve got an addiction and this is how I’m choosing to deal with it. ‘Nuff said.

So after I made up a batch of my Nana’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch Balls I realized how good it felt to gently steer away from all things Christmas for a post. I mean sure, peanut butter and chocolate is always welcome at Christmas, but the peanut butter balls weren’t overtly Christmas-y. You know, red and green sprinkles all over and stuff. I liked it. And I guess I was really missing my Reese’s.

Don’t freak out here. I will be back with lots more Christmas treats, but for now, let’s focus on these bars. Besides for being inherently awesome due to the peanut butter and chocolate factors, these bars are also no-bake which makes them perfect year-round for chocolate and peanut butter addicted people.

Like me.

In a pinch, I can whip up a batch of these bars in under 30 minutes and that includes refrigeration time. Not bad, right? These also look pretty darn amazing on a Christmas cookie laden tray. Trust me on this; they will go fast.
