In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter together in the microwave or in a double boiler. Once melted, pour the mixture over the cooled graham cracker crust and spread it evenly. Top the mixture with the marshmallow fluff and spread it evenly. If desired, sprinkle chopped peanuts or chocolate chips over the top.
Bake the pan for 10-12 minutes, or until the marshmallow fluff is lightly golden. Let the pan cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
