Peanut butter S'mores 7-layer bars

It seems 7-layer/Magic bars are all the rage right now.  And trust me, I'm not complaining- I'm a big fan of layers of sugary goodness!!  With the addition of peanut butter chips and chopped peanuts, these aren't your average s'mores bar, either.  Try them, you'll love them!

PEANUT BUTTER S'MORES 7-LAYER BARS
Yield: 2 dozen bars

Ingredients:

2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 12 full graham crackers, ground)
1/2 cup salted butter, melted
2 cups chocolate chips 
1 cup peanut butter chips
2 cups Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
1 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
1/2 cup peanuts
1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper. Spray generously with non-stick spray. Set aside.

Stir together graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mixture will be relatively crumbly. Press onto the bottom of the prepared dish and slightly up the sides. (Mixture will be thin, that's ok).

Layer chocolate chips and next 4 ingredients (in that order) into prepared baking pan. Drizzle with sweetened condensed milk.

Bake for 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. This will prevent the marshmallows from getting too brown. Place back into the oven and bake for 17-18 more minutes (for a total of 35-36 minutes). Allow to cool completely and lift the bars out of the pan using the edges of the parchment paper. Cut into squares.
