Ingredients

  • Rice Krispies
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Peanut butter
  • Unsalted butter
  • Salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pan: Begin by greasing a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once the butter is melted, add the mini marshmallows. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
  3. Add the Peanut Butter: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peanut butter until it’s fully combined with the melted marshmallow mixture.
  4. Mix in the Rice Krispies: Gradually add the Rice Krispies to the peanut butter mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly to coat all the cereal evenly.
  5. Transfer to the Pan: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Using a buttered spatula or your hands (dampened with a little water to prevent sticking), press the mixture evenly into the pan.
  6. Let Them Set: Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. If you're in a hurry, you can pop them in the fridge to speed up the setting process.
  7. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut the treats into squares or rectangles. Enjoy your homemade Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats fresh or store them for later!
