Prep time: 15 mins | Freeze time: 3 hours | Servings: 12 bars
Ingredients
- The Base: 1 cup creamy peanut butter.
- The Sweetener: 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted.
- The Fluff: 1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed.
Instructions
- Prep the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang for easy removal later.
- Mix the Base: In a bowl, combine the peanut butter and melted chocolate chips. Stir until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Thicken: Let the mixture cool slightly so it thickens but remains spreadable.
- Fold in the Fluff: Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip, mixing just until fully incorporated. The texture should resemble a light, airy mousse.
- Spread and Level: Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
- Freeze: Freeze for at least 3 hours, or until completely firm.
- Slice and Serve: Lift the parchment overhang to remove the block from the pan and cut into 12 bars. Store them in the freezer and serve chilled.
