No Bake Chocolate & Honey Peanut Butter Bars
I have another no-bake recipe for you today! It’s the middle of January, so I’m not quite sure why I’m not using my oven as often as I can. On the other hand, it’s January…which is my laziest month of the year and I can’t get overly motivated to do the hard work of turning on the oven.
Just shake your head and walk away. It’s ok.
Not only have I been on a no-bake kick, I’ve also been eating ALL THE PEANUT BUTTER. In case you were wondering, I have a very solid winter-bod right about now. Laziness and peanut butter tends to help that process along.
Anyhow, let’s focus on this recipe…
Why These Are The Best Peanut Butter Dessert
The base is a sweet combo of peanut butter, graham cracker crumbs, butter, powdered sugar and honey. They taste like a peanut butter cup, only better. I’m telling you it’s possible.
And the chocolate topping is so dreamy…
…melted chocolate, peanut butter and more honey.
You just let them chill after the not-hard-work is done and then count the minutes until you can eat a bar… or three. I simply can’t get enough of these! The chocolate and peanut butter flavors are on point and they melt in your mouth so wonderfully.
Like I said, winter bod in full effect. We’ll start counting calories when the pan is empty.

- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups honey graham cracker crumbs
- 3 cups powdered sugar
Chocolate Layer
- 1 3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Line a 9×9 dish with aluminum foil and coat lightly with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, honey, and peanut butter, mixing on medium speed until smooth. Turn the mixer to low and add in the graham cracker crumbs and powdered sugar until combined. This will be very thick.

- Once they’re chilled, cut into pieces.
- Serve cold or at room temperature.
