Tip

I loved it so much that I wanted to share - super easy, guilt-free peanut butter-and-chocolate combo fix!

If using conventional peanut butters (like Kraft or Sanitarium), the oil stays combined with the peanut butter, remaining drier and the bar doesn’t stay together as well. As suggested in the comments, add some coconut oil to help this.

I have used a natural, oilier than usual peanut butter for this (Planet Organic smooth peanut butter) and it was fine. Mayvers or homemade ones maybe the same (oilier, with oil separating from the paste).

Keep the bars chilled as the warmth may cause it to crumble.

Use roasted almond butter instead of peanut butter for a Paleo version.

Use hulled tahini instead of peanut butter for a nut-free version.

    Yummy slice but crumbled when I sliced it... even after being in the fridge for 4 hours... maybe the addition of coconut oil would hold it together better.

    Followed exactly what you said (used ABC butter instead of peanut butter) and it is extremely crumbly and dry. Will try adding some coconut oil to bind it together.
