Peanut chews have become a simchah and dessert favorite for sweet tooths of all ages. Though this recipe is great with a classic parve chocolate, in honor of Shavuos I figured, why not give it a milchig “upgrade”? Either way you make it, you’ll have many happy “chewers” this Yom Tov.
1 cup Gefen Peanut Butter
1 cup Karo syrup
12 ounces (340 grams) pareve semisweet chocolate
5 cups rice crispies
1 cup Gefen Peanut Butter
1 cup Karo syrup
12 ounces (340 grams) pareve white chocolate
5 cups rice crispies
7 ounces (200 grams) brown pareve or dairy chocolate, melted
1/4 cup Gefen Smooth Peanut Butter
7 ounces (200 grams) white pareve or dairy chocolate, melted
1/4 cup Gefen Smooth Peanut Butter
Line a 10×15-inch (25×40-cm) cookie sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
For the dark layer, place the peanut butter, Karo syrup, and chocolate in a medium pot. Over medium heat, stir until melted.
Turn off heat and add in five cups rice crispies. Wet your hands and press mixture into the pan until flat.
For the light layer, place the peanut butter, Karo syrup, and chocolate in a medium pot. Over medium heat, stir until melted.
Turn off flame and add in five cups rice crispies. Wet your hands and press mixture on top of the dark layer until flat.
When peanut chews are firm, cut in half and flip over one half so that one part has the dark layer on top and one part has the dark layer on bottom.
Melt chocolate and stir in the peanut butter. Spread the dark topping on top of the light layer and the light topping on top of the dark layer. Cut and enjoy!
