#24 Rice Krispie Treats with Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cups

I’m not sure why, but for the past week I have been craving Rice Krispie treats but felt it was too silly to make. Changed my mind.

Instead of making just regular Rice Krispies, I melted chocolate and chopped up Reese’s Peanut Butter cups on top. When I was a kid my mom use to make Rice Krispie treats with us and would always melt chocolate on top. These remind me of my childhood..plus a little bit of my obsession – Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. So good.

Rice Crispie Recipe

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Butter

8 cups of miniture marshmallows

10 cups of Rice Krispie Cereal

3 cups of melted chocolate chips

A bunch of chopped up candy bars

Directions: (Have a 13×9 inch pan sprayed with cooking spray ready.)

1. Melt the butter in a large pan on the stove.

2. Add in the marshmallows and melt completely. Keep stirring for another 2 minutes.

3. Add in the rice krispies and do a few quick stirs. Then quickly transfer into a 13×9 inch cake pan and pat down with a metal utensil (I used a butter knife but you could use whatever).

4. Melt the chocolate in the microwave in 1 minute intervals, stirring in between each. Pour melted chocolate over rice krispies. While chocolate is still warm, add chopped up candy on top.

I hope you all give it a try! It’s super easy and it takes about 10 minutes really. You’ll never want to use the Rice Krispie Box version ever again, trust me.

Enjoy!
