  • Yield: 24 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter chips
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 6 & 1/2 cups rice krispie cereal

Instructions

  1. In a large sauce pan, melt the butter, peanut butter chips and marshmallows on medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes or until smooth.
  2. Remove from the heat & stir in the vanilla
  3. Add the cereal to a very large bowl – I always spray my bowl & pot with non stick spray to help limit the marshmallow sticking as it cools – and pour the marshmallow peanut butter mixture over the cereal; stir to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the cereal into a well greased 13 x 9 inch pan.
  5. Cool completely & then cut into bars. Store in an airtight container.
