Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Graham Crackers: Begin by breaking graham crackers in half and arrange them in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.
  2. Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to blend for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  3. Shape the Filling: Roll the peanut butter mixture into 1-inch balls, flatten them slightly, and place on top of each graham cracker.
  4. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  5. Coat the Graham Crackers: Dip each peanut butter-topped graham cracker into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off before returning to the baking sheet.
  6. Drizzle with Peanut Butter Chips: Melt peanut butter chips with vegetable oil and drizzle over the chocolate-coated crackers.
  7. Set and Serve: Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set firm. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
