1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter

In a 9 x 13 pan, combine the graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar and the peanut butter; mix well. Mix in the melted butter and stir to combine, press the mixture into the bottom of the pan.
Place the chocolate chips and shortening in a microwaveable bowl. Heat for 30 second intervals, mixing after each, until the chips are almost melted. Then stir well to combine and completely melt the chips.
