Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 7 cups mini marshmallows divided
  • 7 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips plus more for sprinkling on top
  • ½ cup peanut butter chips

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and peanut butter and melt.
  • When the butter has melted, stir in 6 cups of marshmallows. Continue stirring, until marshmallows have just melted. Remove from the heat.
  • Stir in the cereal until mostly coated in marshmallow mixture.
  • Add the remaining cup of marshmallows and stir again. Finally stir in the chocolate chips and peanut butter chips just to combine. Work quickly so as not to fully melt the chocolate chips.
  • Press the mixture into a greased 9×13 baking dish. Sprinkle the top with a few chocolate chips if desired, and lightly press them in to adhere.
  • Let cool for 1 hour before cutting into 12 bars and serving.

Notes

We like to stir the chocolate chips in last so that they don’t fully melt into the Rice Krispies Treats. Work quickly after the mixture has cooled just a bit while stirring for the best results. Otherwise, the treats will still taste delicious, but will just be more brown with melted chocolate throughout.
