Instructions
- Line a 9x9" or 12x8" baking dish with parchment paper (or spray very well with cooking spray). Set aside until ready to use. In a large pot, melt butter over low to medium-low heat. Add marshmallows and turn the heat to low. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are melted and completely smooth.
- Remove from heat and quickly stir in peanut butter.
- Add Rice Krispies.
- Fold in the mini marshmallows (you can also stir in a few handfuls of Reese's pieces and peanut butter cups if desired to incorporate the candies into the bars).
- Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. DO NOT PRESS them in tightly. Just very gently even the top of the treats (use the butter wrapper to press it in).
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, and 1 tablespoon of peanut butter.Microwave at 50% power for 45 seconds at a time, stirring each time, until melted and the chocolate is shiny.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the top of the Rice Krispie treats and smooth with a rubber spatula. Top with peanut butter cups and Reese's Pieces.
- Allow to set, for about one hour. Cut into squares and store in an airtight container.
Notes
- The Reese's candies and chocolates are totally optional. If you want to keep the Rice Krispie treats plain, you can leave them out completely.
- If you are in a hurry, you can refrigerate the Rice Krispie treats before serving. Just cover and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to harden the chocolate topping
- For maximum freshness, wait to cut into squares until right before serving
