Ingredients
- 1 cup + 1 tbsp peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 tsp salt omit if your peanut butter is salted
- 2 cups rice krispie cereal - I like Traders Joe's version
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- Flakey sea salt to top
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper
- In a large mixing bowl combine 1 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup honey, and 1/4 tsp salt
- Once thoroughly combined add the rice crispies to the bowl and mix again
- Mix until the cereal and pb are an even mixture
- Press firmly into the pan
- Heat chocolate chips and 1 tbsp of peanut butter in the microwave or over a double boiler until the chocolate melts and the peanut butter can be easily mixed in
- Pour the chocolate over the rice krispie layer
- Season with flakey sea salt if desired
- Place in the fridge to chill until the bars are solid - at least 2 hours
- Cut the bars into 16 even squares and enjoy!
- Store the bars in the fridge and enjoy shortly after removing from the fridge because the bars will melt quickly
Cup of Yum
Notes
- You can use other types of nut butter like almond butter or cashew butter in place of the peanut butter
- You can use other types of cereal like rice chex in place of the rice krispies
