Notes
Preparation is straightforward and requires minimal effort. Start by mixing the peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and graham cracker crumbs in a bowl until everything is blended smoothly. The key to a successful base is making sure the mixture is uniform without any lumps. Once your base is ready, press it firmly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, smoothing it with the back of a spoon.
