Square-shaped Peanut Butter Moonpie Recipe (Dairy-Free!)

Ingredients

Charisse Kenion

  • 2 Tbs Shortening
  • 1 Pack Chocolate Chips (2 cups) (We used Nestlé Toll House Simply Delicious Semi-Sweet Morsels made with only 3 ingredients)
  • Honey Maid Graham crackers
  • Jif Whips Creamy Whipped Peanut Butter

Directions

  • Use non-stick cooking tray or cover tray with wax paper
  • Snap graham crackers in half, spread them with whipped peanut butter, and stick them together, making peanut butter sandwiches. Place them each on the cooking tray.
  • Put chocolate chips and shortening into medium-sized heat-proof bowl. In a larger heat-proof bowl, pour hot/boiling water about a quarter-full so that when the smaller bowl is placed inside the larger bowl, the water will come about halfway up the side of the smaller bowl. DO NOT get water into the smaller bowl; it is only used to heat the chocolate/shortening mixture.
  • Carefully stir the chocolate chip/shortening mixture with rubber scraper until fully melted. Remove the smaller bowl from the larger bowl.
  • Using tongs, dip each graham cracker sandwich into the chocolate mixture, making sure the whole sandwich is covered in chocolate. Place back on cooking tray
  • When all are covered with chocolate, immediately place tray in refrigerator.
  • Chocolate coating should harden in about 15-20 minutes. Remove moonpies from tray as desired and enjoy!

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
