Description
Delightful treats that combine chocolate, peanut butter, and crispy cereal into a perfect snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- Pinch of sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Base: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and mini marshmallows while stirring consistently until smooth.
- Add Peanut Butter: Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract (if using) until fully combined and creamy.
- Mix with Cereal: Pour the Rice Krispies into a large bowl and add the peanut butter mixture. Gently fold until all the cereal is coated evenly.
- Shape the Cups: Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Spoon the mixture evenly into each cup and press down gently to form a flat surface.
- Add Chocolate Layer: Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth. Spoon the melted chocolate over each cup and spread evenly. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
- Set & Serve: Allow the cups to cool at room temperature for 20 minutes or place them in the refrigerator to set faster. Once firm, remove the paper liners and serve!
Notes
Use fresh ingredients for best flavor. Experiment with different types of chocolate and nut butters.
