Snack attack. Home by my lonesome craving sweets so I had all the ingredients to make some peanut butter, chocolate rice krispie treats. No grands around so I guess it'll be me to dig into them and give some to the neighbors.
Enjoy my friends!
3 Tablespoons Butter
1 (10 ounce) bag Marshmallows
¼ Cup Peanut Butter(2 heaping tablespoons)
5 Cups Rice Krispy Cereal
4 regular size Hershey Bars
Optional**1¼ Cups Chocolate Chips (semi-sweet, milk, or dark) (melted) I did not top my bars but you certainly could easily.
Line an 8-inch × 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil and spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
Melt the butter over low heat in a large saucepan. Add the marshmallows and stir until they're completely melted. Stir in the peanut butter and mix until it's smooth.
Add the cereal to the marshmallow mixture and stir until it's completely combined. Working quickly, (use a little butter or cooking spray on your hands) to press half of the cereal mixture into your prepared baking pan.
Arrange the Hershey Bars on top of the cereal layer in a 4×4 grid. Add the remaining half of the cereal mixture over the peanut butter cups and press (use butter on your hands or cooking spray so you fingers won't stick to mixture) it into an even layer.
Pour the melted chocolate on top of the cereal and use a spatula to spread it into an even layer. Place the pan in the refrigerator until the chocolate is set, about 1 hour.
Once set, remove the treats from the pan and cut them into individual squares. Store in an airtight container.
