Well, I got the dishes done, laundry almost done, and had the kids play in the sprinkler, so I decided to reward myself with doing another blog. I'm trying to be more creative in my blog writing so I thought I would start adding recipes that I find particularly tasty. My red-headed friend Hilary (inside joke!) posted a recipe one of our roommate's gave us for Reese's squares or bars, or whatever. Anyway, they sounded really good and I have been wanting to make them for a while so I looked to see if I also had the recipe. I found another one almost exactly like it that a friend of mine here in Indiana gave me. I didn't realize they were basically the same recipe, just a slight variation (on the word "recipe" - sorry, another inside joke!) in ingredients. So I decided to whip some up for FHE last night. Yummy!!!! I'll probably end up eating the whole pan myself! Anyway, here is the recipe and a picture to get your mouth watering!
1 pkg (brick) graham crackers, crushed
1 stick butter
1 cup peanut butter
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Combine and press into 9x13 pan. Melt 1 pkg (12 oz) chocolate chips and spread over top. Let set. I put mine in the fridge b/c it doesn't get hard enough with this summer heat, even with the a/c on. Also, if you don't happen to have graham crackers you can use Rice Krispies, but it isn't quite as good as the graham crackers.

About how many cups do you think it takes to equal 1 brick of graham crackers. Did you know that Keebler sells boxes of Graham cracker crumbs? I love it, use it for pies, and my favorite spinach casserole.
mmmm.... that looks SO good! I LOOOOOVE those! And, I usually eat most of it myself too. :OP
Slight variation... I just can't remember that one! Am I part of that IJ?? It sounds familiar, but I can't figure it out!!!
Your redheaded friend, Hilary
The other recipe I have says to use 2 3/4 cups crushed graham cracker crumbs.
Great, I'll have to try it.
BTW-congratulations on your new little baby. So cute. I always forget how little they are when they are born. Those were some great pictures you shared.
Also, Hilary, yes, we always used to say that, but I can't remember how it started. We would use it for pretty much any word.
