Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line a 15x10x1-inch jellyroll pan with waxed paper or parchment paper.
  2. Set up a double boiler by bringing water to a boil in the bottom pot.
  3. Place the white chocolate and chunky peanut butter in the top of the double boiler.
  4. Reduce heat to low and stir constantly until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
  5. Pour the melted peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Melt 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate separately using a double boiler or microwave.
  7. Drizzle or pour the melted semi-sweet chocolate over the peanut butter layer.
  8. Use a knife to swirl the semi-sweet chocolate through the peanut butter mixture to create a marbled pattern.
  9. Refrigerate until firm, approximately 1 to 2 hours.

Note

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For best texture, let pieces sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before eating.

You can use creamy peanut butter if you prefer a smoother texture, but chunky adds a nice contrast.

Ensure your double boiler water is simmering, not boiling vigorously, to prevent the chocolate from seizing or burning.
