Salted Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats
Peanut butter rice krispie treats are a delicious twist on your childhood favorite! They’re soft, crispy, and easy enough to make with kids!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 (10 oz) bag small marshmallows
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
- flakey salt for topping
Instructions
- Melt the butter on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the butter begins to foam and bubble.
- Once light brown specs form at the bottom of the pot, the butter turns golden brown, and the butter begins to smell nutty, add the marshmallows.
-
Stir the marshmallows into the browned butter and continue to stir until the marshmallows are melted.
- Remove from the heat.
-
Add the peanut butter to the pan and mix again until combined.
-
Stir in the cereal and mix again until they are coated with the peanut butter mixture.
-
Line a 9×9 square pan with parchment paper and press the krispie mixture into the pan. The harder you press down into the mixture, the firmer the treats will hold together.
-
If you’re adding the mini marshmallows on top, sprinkle them on top of the treats and press them into the top.
-
Allow the Rice Krispie treats to set for 30 minutes or pop them in the fridge for 10 – 15 minutes.
-
Cut into 16 squares and sprinkle with flakey salt.
