Homemade Copycat Kit Kat Bars

I haven't made these luscious treats for a few years, so it was past time! 

I bought a box of Club crackers a couple of weeks ago, so when the time came, I'd be ready...set...GO! 




These are pretty simple and so delicious! Smashed graham crackers, butter, brown sugar, and milk make up the filling. 

The topping is melted peanut butter and chocolate chips!

I keep mine in the garage so when I need a treat to share, they are ready for me.  (And it helps to keep them 'hidden') 

A beautiful and tasty addition to your holiday tray.  It's the only time of the year I can trust myself to make them - because it's December...and
anything goes, right??? 

Enjoy every crunchy bite!  


HOMEMADE KIT KAT BARS

8 ozs. Club Crackers (or Waverly)
1 c. butter (2 sticks)
2 c. graham cracker crumbs
3/4 c. light brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. milk
1/3 c. white sugar

1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips 
2/3 c. creamy peanut butter

Line a 9" X 13" ungreased baking dish with a single layer of crackers. In large saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter.  Add graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, milk and sugar. Bring to a gentle boil; boil for 5 minutes. Stir constantly so it doesn't burn. 

Remove from heat; spread half the butter mixture evenly over the crackers. Place another layer of crackers over the graham cracker mixture; spread remaining butter mixture over top; add final layer of crackers. 

In a small saucepan, add chocolate chips and peanut butter.  Melt over med-low heat, stirring constantly until blended. Spread evenly over the top layer of crackers.  

Allow to cool about 10 minutes; cover with plastic wrap and place in a cool place (my garage works nicely for this...but you can put them in the fridge for an hour if you'd like)...until chocolate layer is set. 

When it is completely cool; cut into small squares. 

Enjoy!  If you have any leftovers...keep covered in a cool place.
