Disneyland’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich- A delicious copycat recipe of one of the best treats at Disneyland! A layer of chocolate covered graham cracker topped with a creamy peanut butter layer and all dipped in chocolate! These are easy to make and so yummy!
One of the best memories my kids have is when we took them to Disneyland last year. Just over one year later and we still talk about it all the time! Since I am a major foodie remembering the food and treats we had there is something we like to talk about. My boys loved the beignets, I especially loved the food at the Cozy Cone Motel and we all loved the treats at Pooh Corner! One of our favorite treats we had are these Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwiches. It was fun to recreate this yummy treat not only the enjoy it again together but to bring back memories of our time at Disneyland. My boys seriously couldn’t believe I made these and they think I am pretty cool! Plus these taste so delicious! We can’t go back to Disneyland right now but we can enjoy this homemade version of Disneyland’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich.
This dessert only takes a few steps to make! First, you break the graham crackers in half then dip them in melted chocolate. YUM!
Then you spread a creamy peanut butter mixture on top. I use my cookie scoop then spread it even.
After that chill it, cover it in chocolate and if you want you can top it with chopped peanuts. That’s it! Disneyland used to have these with drizzled chocolate over the top but now it has chopped peanuts on top. I don’t always love nuts in my dessert but this was the perfect way to finish off this amazing recipe.
Mmm!
Creamy peanut butter, crunchy graham cracker, chocolatey GOODNESS!
Enjoy!

Disneyland's Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich
Ingredients
- 6 graham cracker sheets, broken in half
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 1/2 cups chocolate melting wafers (or good quality chocolate chips + 4 tsp shortening, or half melting wafers and half chocolate chips)
- optional: chopped peanuts
Instructions
- On a baking sheet lined with wax or parchment paper place the 12 graham cracker halves and set aside.
- In a double boiler melt chocolate melting wafers or chocolate chips and shortening. Stir until mixture is completely melted and smooth. (Use a small saucepan, boil water then reduce heat to low. Place a heat-proof bowl on top. (Make sure the water doesn't touch it.) Add the chocolate in the bowl and stir until melted.)
- Dip each graham cracker in the chocolate using a spoon to make sure it's all covered. Use a fork to lift it out of the chocolate and tap off the excess chocolate. If needed use a spoon to smooth the chocolate on top and to remove any more excess chocolate. Place each graham cracker back on the lined baking sheet. Place in the freezer for about 10 minutes or until chocolate is set.
- Meanwhile, in a medium-sized mixing bowl combine the peanut butter and softened butter and mix by hand until butter is incorporated. Mix in the vanilla extract. Slowly stir in the powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth.
- Top each graham crackers with about 2 tablespoons of the peanut butter mixture. I use a medium-sized cookie scoop. Then spread out the mixture evenly over each of the chocolate dipped graham crackers. Place in freezer for 20 minutes.
- A couple minute before pulling the peanut butter crackers out of the freezer remove the chocolate from the stove top and stir it to help it cool down a little. Spoon the remaining chocolate over the tops and sides of the peanut butter and use the spoon or a knife to make the edges straight. Top with chopped peanuts if desired and repeat with each peanut butter cracker. Stick the baking sheet back in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
- Store in the fridge. Before eating remove from the fridge for about 10 minutes before enjoying.

Disneyland and the food there is the best! 🙂 It makes everyone happy!
Yay Disneyland food!
We love the Mickey Mouse ice creams!
So fun! Lets be honest, all the food at Disneyland is so good! I love the Mickey ice cream sandwiches the most though.
Yes so true! Anything Mickey shaped is so much fun! 🙂
I love making Tigger Tails!
That’s a fun one!
I love the churros!!! They are the best!
Yes they are!
Oh, my good gracious those look scrumptious Becky! My fav Disneyland treat are the Raspberry Rose Macarons at the Jolly Holiday. YUM!!
Thanks so much Emi! 🙂 I’ll have to try that next time! That sounds yummy!
My favorite treat at Disneyland is their pecan roll. This post of yours looks so tasty!
That sounds yummy! And thank you! 🙂
I haven’t been in years, but I really want to try the dole whip!
It’s so good! I hope you can go soon! 🙂
I *cannot* walk past an ice cream cone at Disneyland without eating it. My favorite is a double scoop of cookies and cream ice cream in a chocolate dipped (with sprinkles!) waffle cone, at the Gibson Girl. The Ghiradelli shop on the Boardwalk is a very close second, though. Followed by just about ANYTHING in a bread bowl, lol.
And although it’s not technically a “Disney treat”, we’ve never had a bad meal at the LaBrea Restaurant just outside the park gates in Downtown Disney.
Disneyland has the best ice cream! 🙂 I’ll have to go to LaBrea Restaurant next time. Thanks for the recommendations!
I’m a fan of the Dole Whip. It’s nice and cool on a hot day.

My parents really only let me get churros while we were at Disneyland. I can’t wait to go back soon & try more of the treats!
These look so yummy! We took our kiddos to Disneyland last year too, and it was so fun! We absolutely LOVE the apple freezes from the Cozy Cone at California Adventure

I haven’t been to Disneyland since I was a kid so I don’t remember any of the food, but I will for sure be grabbing a Dole pineapple whip next time we are there!
