Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Crunch Bars

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Cookie or candy?  That was my first thought when I took a bite of these bars.  After I finished my portion and could feel the sugar racing through my body, I decided on candy.  Definitely candy.  In fact, I would describe these as crunchy Reeses Peanut Butter Cups gone extreme.  If you love the pairing of chocolate and peanut butter, these intense bars will calm that need for quite awhile.Chocolate and Peanut Butter Fudge Crunch Bars
