Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

Whenever I think about Buckeye Bars they remind me of my Grandfather cheering on Ohio State Football. I decided to make this recipe in honor of my late Grandfather and his love of Ohio and Ohio State.  My Grandfather was a devout Ohio State Fan. He went to school at OSU and kept his Varsity O for the rifle team over his desk. Watching the OSU games was a treat when we went to visit my grandparents in Ohio. We got to see my Grandfather let loose and avidly cheer on his team.

These Chocolate Peanut Butter Buckeye Bars are seriously delicious! I mean melt in your mouth please can I have another delicious. I am not just saying that because I made them they really are that good.
