How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars. Your friends and family will love these peanut
butter chocolate bars. You will need Nonstick cooking spray 1 c. chunky peanut butter 1
tsp. vanilla extract ¾ tsp. baking soda 2 c. granulated sugar ½ c. water ¾ c. light
corn syrup 1 lb. chocolate candy coating 8" x 8" pan Parchment paper A candy thermometer
A baking sheet and a dipping tool. Step 1. Prepare the baking pan by lining it with parchment
paper and spraying it with cooking spray. Step 2. Mix the peanut butter, vanilla, and
the baking soda in a small mixing bowl and set it aside. Step 3. Heat the sugar and water
in the medium saucepan over medium heat. Constantly mix until the sugar dissolves completely.
Then bring it to a boil and stir in the corn syrup. Step 4. Cook the syrup until it reaches
300 degrees on your candy thermometer, and then remove it from the heat. Carefully watch
the temperature so the syrup does not burn. Step 5. Slowly pour the candy into the prepared
pan and let it sit for 2 minutes. Then score the candy into 10 pieces with a knife and
set it aside for at least 4 hours. Step 6. Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl
and cook it on medium, stirring every minute, until it melts. Then let the chocolate cool
for five minutes. Step 7. Remove the candy from the pan while the chocolate is cooling.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it nearby. Use the knife to cut along
the scored lines again if needed. Step 8. Use a dipping tool to dip the candy into the
chocolate, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl. Then place the bars on the
baking sheet and refrigerate them for 10 minutes. Step 9. Serve these delicious bars once the
chocolate has set. Did you know Wealthy 16th and 17th century Europeans drank hot chocolate
