This was so easy and they turned out wonderful! They are best right out of the fridge, but my office loves them. They are much better than the brand name and fun to make with kids. I think it took me a total of 20 mintues to make. I suggest everyone try them!

These are great No Bake Squares esp. in the Summer. They are delicious and I have made them over and over. Much tastier than Peanut Butter Cups w/o all the additives.

These squares are out of this world! I made them for a party, and have had to give the recipe out to at least 5 people so far. Really good, and really really easy to make!

I made these for the Super Bowl for my husband because he LOVES peanut butter. They were AMAZING!! The only thing is I added 1/2 cup more melted maragine because 1/2 cup was too little and the mixture was very dry. I will be making these again..very soon!

We LOVE this recipe - although, I use the full 2 packages of chocolate!! Don't forget the nice cold glass of milk with these. I've made these several times now and have even had a friend admit to craving them! SUPER EASY too.
