These peanut butter Rice Krispies are chewy, peanut buttery, and ridiculously delicious with a layer of chocolate on top.
Advertisement:For ingredients, you’ll need:
¼ cup unsalted butter
1 10-oz bag mini marshmallows or 5 cups
½ cup peanut butter
6 cups Rice Krispie cereal (or whatever generic brand works too)
I prefer using mini marshmallows because they melt more easily – but if you only have large ones, 1 cup of mini marshmallows is equal to 8 large ones (so you’d need 40 total for the recipe). To use marshmallow cream, one 7 oz jar is equal to 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows.
Pro Tip: For extra gooey Rice Krispie Treats – only use 5 ½ cups Rice Krispies in this recipe.
I typically make these on the stovetop. But you can also use your microwave to melt together the butter, peanut butter and marshmallows.

Add the butter and marshmallows to a large heat-proof bowl.
Microwave for 1-minute intervals on medium power, stirring between each until they are both melted.
Stir in the peanut butter.
Then stir in the Rice Krispies.
Press into the pan & allow to harden.
Then a layer of delicious chocolate goes on top. It’s optional – but I don’t think you’ll get any complaints if you add the chocolate
