Kit Kat Bars

A homeade variation of the popular candy bar! Very tasty, and maybe not all that healthy :)

Ingredients:
  • 60 buttery crackers, such as Keebler Club Crackers
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup firmly-packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1-1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
Preparation:
  1. Butter a 9 x 13 baking dish. Line with a layer of 20 crackers.
  2. In a small saucepan, bring butter, sugars and milk together to a boil over medium heat. Stir in crushed graham crackers. Let boil 5 minutes.
  3. Pour half of the sugar mixture over the crackers. Cover with another layer of 20 crackers, pressing down lightly. Pour remaining syrup mixture over crackers, smoothing to coat.
  4. Top with the remaining crackers, pressing lightly.
  5. Place chocolate chips and peanut butter in a microwave-safe dish. Heat on high 30 seconds. Stir and repeat until chips are melted. (Alternatively, melt chocolate chips and peanut butter in a saucepan over low heat.)
  6. Pour evenly over the top layer of crackers, making sure the crackers are completely covered.
  7. Refrigerate until kit kat bars are firm.
Makes 36 kit kat bars.

Enjoy!
