A new twist on an old favorite. This is a must try for peanut butter & chocolate fans!
Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Rice Krispies Treats
Makes several servings
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
1.
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" x 13"). 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.
2. 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. (I actually flipped my batch of treats over onto themselves to create an extra thick rice krispies treat)
