Description

Ingredients

• 6 cups Rice Krispies®
• 1 - 10 ounce bag of miniature marshmallows
• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup of jarred caramel sauce
• 1/2 of a bar of dark chocolate

Directions

• Butter a 9 by 13 pan.
• Open the marshmallows and measure out the Rice Krispies®, peanut butter, and butter.
• Place a 6 quart or larger pot on a burner over a medium flame.
• Place the butter in the hot pan and let it melt.
• Add the peanut butter and marshmallows, stirring constantly. Keep cooking and stirring until all of the marshmallows have melted and blended in with the peanut butter.
• Turn off the heat and add the Rice Krispies®, stirring until they are evenly coated.
• Dump the mixture into the 9 by 13 pan and press it down evenly using the back of a spoon.
• Chop the chocolate into small, uneven chunks.
• Measure out 1/2 cup of caramel into a glass 1-cup measuring cup and microwave it on high, stirring it at 20 second intervals until it is thin enough to drizzle on top.
• Using a spoon, drizzle the caramel evenly across the top of the Rice Krispies® Treats. The caramel base will make the chocolate chunks stick, so make sure to get it all the way to the edges and corners.
• Immediately after drizzling on the caramel sprinkle on the chocolate chunks, again trying to spread them out as evenly as possible.
• Let the caramel topping cool before cutting into bars.
