How to Make Peanut Butter Rice Krispy Bars

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, 1 (10 ounce) bag of marshmallows, and 1/4 cup (50g) light corn syrup. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup (200g) creamy peanut butter until well combined.
  3. Gently fold in 6 cups (150g) Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  5. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 cup (170g) semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (85g) butterscotch chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. (Alternatively, melt in a double boiler).
  6. Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the Rice Krispies treats and spread evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the treats to set before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
  8. Optional: Sprinkle with sea salt for an extra flavor boost.
