Decadent Chocolate Peanut Butter Chunk Magic Bars are ramped up with the addition of Kit-Kats and peanut butter cups, taking magic bars to a whole new level. The best part is you can improvise with any candy you have hanging around and they will be absolutely delicious!

Magic Bars are one of my favorite desserts to make, they are perfect right out of the oven, or paired with vanilla ice cream and fudge topping.

They are also one of the most versatile bars that you can make because you can basically add any kinds of chips, candy bars, nuts, or toppings and have the perfect dessert.

After the holidays I ended up with a few bags of mini candy bars, Kit Kat’s, and peanut butter cups among them. As chocolate and peanut butter are one of my favorite combinations, I thought they would make the perfect Magic Bar.

I was correct, they are perfect. These bars are chocolatey, with a hint of peanut butter, a little crunchy and buttery, and sweet from the graham crackers and condensed milk.

Tell me, do you have a Magic Bar combination that you enjoy? Are you a traditionalist or do you experiment with different combinations of chocolate, coconut and nuts? Please share your favorite and if you try this one come back and let me know what you thought of it.
