[net.cooks] Peanut Butter Candies

             Over  a year ago, a recipe for peanut butter candy circu-
          lated around the office where I was working. The recipe ori-
          ginated  from  a  lady  who was living in Saudi Arabia where
          candy  is  difficult  to  come  by.  So, she created her own
          recipe,  which  tastes  amazingly like Reese's peanut butter
          cups  (you  know, you got peanut butter in my chocalate, you
          got  chocolate  in my peanut butter...). Anyways, the recipe
          was  originally  published in the Ottawa Citizen. I've tried
          the recipe and found the stuff addictive (yes, it does taste
          like Reese's peanut butter cups). Hope you enjoy it.


                               PEANUT BUTTER CANDIES


             1 cup margerine
             4 cups icing sugar
             1.5 cups smooth peanut butter
             1 cup or 10 whole Graham crackers crushed
             1 bag chocolate chips (6-8 oz.)


             In  a  large  saucepan  melt  margerine,  add  next three
          ingrediants  and  blend together very well. Press mix into a
          11X16 cookie sheet. In a small double boiler, melt chocolate
          chips  (could  also  use a microwave) and spread evenly over
          peanut butter mixture. Chill and then cut into squares. This
          recipe freezes well.
