Peanut Butter Cups

I love this peanut butter cup recipe and it was made even more fun by making it in a gingerbread shape for Christmas.
Peanut Butter Cups

4 cups powdered sugar
1 cup melted butter
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
1 1/4 cups crushed graham crackers
Large chocolate bar, melted

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.  You can adjust how much chocolate you wish to use.  Then mix all remaining ingredients in the order they appear, mixing well between each addition.  Press peanut butter mixture into a 8X11 inch pan.  Pour melted chocolate over top and place in fridge to set.  In making the above gingerbread man, I put the chocolate in the gingerbread shaped silicone pan first and let set in the fridge until hard.  Then I put the peanut butter mixer on top and put that in the fridge to set.  The silicone makes it easy to dump out the shaped finished product.  Then I used cake piping to decorate.
