Erin's Paula Deen's Georgia Cookie Candy (Nov/Dec CC)

Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
3 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Line a 13 by 9 by 2-inch pan with foil.

Combine the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and graham cracker crumbs in a food processor. Process until the mixture forms a ball. Press into the foil-lined pan using your hands or a spatula.

Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over simmering water or in a microwave-safe glass dish in the microwave for 1 minute on high (100%). Stir. If the chocolate has not completely melted, microwave for 10 seconds more, then stir. Spread evenly over the cookie layer with a spatula. Chill for several hours.

When ready to serve, allow the candy to come to room temperature before cutting into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
