Ingredients

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for dish
10 ounces jumbo marshmallows
3/4 cup creamy, common brand peanut butter (recommended: Jif or Skippy)
6 cups crispy rice cereal (recommended: Rice Krispies)
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Melt the butter over low heat in a large pot. Stir in the marshmallows and cook until fully melted and no marshmallow white remains. Stir in the peanut butter until combined. Stir in the cereal until distributed evenly through the marshmallow mixture. Pour out onto a lightly greased rectangular baking dish (9 by 13 inches). Smooth out the top of the treats by moistening your hands with a little water and using the palms of your hand to press down gently. Don't press down too hard or else your treats will be too dense. Set aside to cool.

Once the treats have cooled, melt the chocolate over low heat. Cut the treats into even squares and quickly just shallowly dip the top side of the treats into the chocolate. Turn chocolate side up and set in a baking dish or on a rack until set.

Best Rice Crispy Teats Ever
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I liked this recipe more then any other Rice Krispies I've tried. I'm not fond of rice krispie treats the way they are... usually made. This recipe though was tasty and easy. It was a big hit with my family.Read more

Simple and effective
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This recipe was excellently easy to make, but I did not add the peanut butter due to allergies and we didn't have choc chips.... I must add that in some cases it will need more butter in order to saturate the marshmallows efficiently. Great old time food none the less.Read more

Loved the addition of peanut butter. I didnt melt the chips on top, but added it with the cereal so there are chunks of it... throughout.Read more

The treats themselves are easy to make and taste great. The chocolate dipping always seems to be a production- easier to jst... drizzle it across the topsRead more
