These Reese’s Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats are moist and gooey but still hold their shape when taken out of the pan. The chocolate, peanut butter, and mallow are perfectly balanced. And the texture/consistency is great: they are nice and creamy with a crispness from the Rice Krispies.
If you like Reese’s and if you like rice krispies, you CAN NOT NOT make these! That was a double negative which = positive. So, you MUST try these. They are delicious!
Warning- if you are on a diet (like I am), I highly recommend only eating a small piece and giving the rest away (like I have). Because these were much better than I anticipated.
Ingredients are listed in recipe box below.
Instructions
1. Melt the butter and Adams creamy natural no-stir peanut butter (it is the BEST & tastes like Reese’s) in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir in marshmallows.
2. Next, microwave marshmallows for 45 seconds, stir well. Microwave 30 seconds stir. The marshmallows should be melted now.
If not, keep heating for 20 seconds and stirring until they are melted. Then stir in Reese’s (they will melt too).
3. Add Cocoa Krispies and mix well.
4. Finally, place into a well greased cake pan 9×13 and allow them to cool.
Once cool, cut and enjoy!
Optional garnish with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
