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!

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
