Time 1h15m

Yield 16 rice squares

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
16 ounces mini marshmallows
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 1/2 cups crispy rice cereal
2 1/2 cups coarsely crushed graham crackers (about 9 rectangles)
1 cup milk chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, allowing 1-inch wings to hang over the edges; set aside.
  • In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and salt and cook, stirring, until the marshmallows are melted and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla (the peanut butter can still be swirly). Add the cereal, crushed graham crackers and chocolate chips and fold with a large rubber spatula to combine.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, using the spatula to spread it out evenly. Place a piece of parchment on top and then use your hands to press the mixture down very firmly. Let the mixture firm up in the refrigerator for 1 hour, then cut into squares.

1 cup sugar

6 cups Rice Krispies
16 ounces chocolate chips
16 ounces butterscotch chips

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, cook both kinds of chips until melted.
  • Pour on top of Krispies squares and spread to cover.
  • Cool before cutting into squares.

Tips:

  • If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the butter and peanut butter in a saucepan over low heat.
  • Be sure to press the rice cereal mixture firmly into the pan. This will help the bars hold together.
  • If you want to make the bars even more decadent, you can drizzle them with melted chocolate or peanut butter after they have cooled.
  • These bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
