Combine melted butter, graham crack crumbs, rolled oats, powdered sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter in a large bowl. Mix well. Press dough into a 9x13 inch pan.
In a microwave safe bowl combine chocolate chips and remaining 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir. Return to microwave and heat for 20 seconds, stir and repeat process until chocolate is melted and smooth.
Spread melted chocolate/peanut butter over bottom layer in the pan. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars. (you can allow them to cool at room temperature or in the fridge for quicker results) Store at room temperature in airtight container.

*Oats should be old fashioned rolled oats, not instant oats!
Make sure to check that chocolate in the microwave every 20 seconds. If you don't stir in intervals, it can burn and won't be nearly as smooth.
To cut the bars evenly, I make scoring marks along the sides to make sure I am cutting at equal intervals, then press the knife down to cut through the chocolate, then gently pull it toward you, taking care not to break the chocolate on top if you can.
These bars will keep in the fridge for up to one week in a covered container.
