Peanut Butter Bars

I already have a few similar recipes on here, but there's always room for more. I discovered Preppy Kitchen vids on YouTube, and I love watching his calming cooking videos. This is the first one I saw. It was a Sunday afternoon and I got up and made these right away after watching the vid. He mentions in the vid that he likes leaving some bigger chunks of graham crackers for a different texture- I did the same, mostly because I was too lazy to crush them up any more, and I loved the result.
