Diggitydank420 suggested that I do a thread for this, so here it is. You can always do more PB filling and less chocolate, but i'm a chocoholic and one full slice of this stuff will probably give you diabetes (or at the very least sugar shock), so smoke a lot before you eat it so your blood sugar will be low 
This has become a holiday ritual for us, hope you enjoy.
Ingredients with prices (you can always just use storebrand, tastes the same):
Milk chocolate chips $4.79 for 20 oz bag
Shortening $1.50 for 16 oz. but you only need about 2 tbls
Peanut Butter $2.39 for 18 oz jar
(I bought the Reese’s brand, to add legitimacy)
1 1/4 tbls of cannabutter (made however you like)
Graham cracker crumbs $2.50 for 13.5 oz box, but you only need about ¾ of a cup
Confectioners sugar $1.35 for 2 lb bag, but you only need about 4 cups (powdered sugar)
Aluminum casserole pan $1.49 or use whatever seems right for you (it had the right shape).
Parchment paper $2.50 for 24 foot roll, you’ll use about 3 feet.
Total if you bought all items new: $19.91
Total for ingredients used: $ 9.33
So there it is, very easy to make and easier to eat

- You start by preparing the pan for the chocolate. I took the parchment paper, cut a big circle out and figured out the inside diameter of the pan. Then, using a small wooden stick, I proceeded to fold the edge back and forth to get the nice crankily type of edges for the giant cup. We did this the night before but it doesn't matter, just wanted to save time.
- The next night, I started with the bottom layer. Using a glass, mixing bowl, I poured about 1 cup of milk chocolate chips into it and added 1 tablespoon of shortening. This gets the mixture to flow better when it is melted. Using short bursts on low power, I melted it in a microwave. If you are using baking chocolate, the double boiler over water works better, but chips handle microwaving pretty well. However, they will deceive you as you watch them through the glass by NOT looking melted. Take them out and stir with a spatula. When you have it flowing well, give it a few more seconds of radiation, then pour into your mold (put the parchment cup you made into the casserole pan).
- Check the depth of your bottom layer with a toothpick, fork or some other marker. I used a wooden skewer, marked at how deep I wanted the bottom layer. I then gave it some short shakes back and forth to get the layer to even out and the trapped bubbles to rise to the surface. Put it in the fridge to set.
- The graham cracker crumbs are made for pie crusts. Some of it is fine, and some is course. I wanted much finer grains, so I started by putting about ¾ of a cup in a mini-food processor (you can use a blender or skip this step if you wish). After a bit of noise, I have molecule-sized crumbs. Set aside for now
- Now, scoop out about 4 full tablespoons of peanut butter into a good size mixing bowl. Add about 1 ¼ tablespoon of your cannabutter. Pour in 3 ½ to 4 cups of the confectioners sugar and the 3/4 cup of the graham cracker crumbs.
- So get mixing with your weapon of choice. You can go electric if you like, but I prefer the control of a good silicon spatula. By the time your arm is getting tired, you’ll find the peanut butter has absorbed the sugar and crumbs into a doughy type of material. If you taste it now you will find it tastes very close to the inside of a Reese’s. I put mine in the fridge for about 10 minutes to get it a little more solid to work with.
- If your bottom is set, (I mean the chocolate one) bring it out and ready the peanut butter filling. I put out a sheet of parchment paper and put the peanut butter dough on it. Then I semi-flattened it and covered it with another sheet of parchment paper. I used a rolling pin to flatten it out. Then I found a lid that was about the diameter that I wanted the inner disk of peanut butter to be. I used this as a guide to cut out a clean-edged (sort-of) disk and plop it onto the bottom layer of chocolate.
- You may have had some chocolate left from the first layer. Add more chips and shortening to mix up more. I’d say about 1 ¼ cups. Nuke and mix as you did in the earlier step. When it’s ready to pour, go to it. Fill the top and around the edges. It won't want to flow too well, so you may have to use your handy-dandy spatula.. I did not have quite enough to evenly make the top layer, so I had to add about another ½ cup of chips and pour it on top. Again I used the shake & shimmy method to even the melted chocolate and release air bubbles. After it’s done, back in the fridge to set.
- When you are ready to serve it, remove it from the fridge and let it thaw a little. Since you won’t be wolfing it down in 1 or 2 bites, I expect that you will be cutting it like a pie. As it thaws, it won’t break apart as much. Let it sit out for about 15 mins before cutting and all should be well.
So there it is, very easy to make and easier to eat
