Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats

Posted by Lori:
Plain Rice Krispie Treats are a favorite of most people, but a few years ago we began adding peanut butter to our recipe. The peanut butter adds protein so they're much more filling. And, for some of us (no names mentioned), the peanut butter addition makes them more addictive.

PEANUT BUTTER RICE KRISPIE TREATS

1/4 cup butter
1 package regular marshmallows or 4 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup peanut butter
5 cups Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal

In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and continue to stir until the marshmallows have completely melted. Add peanut butter and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat.

Stir in the Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal coating them well with the melted marshmallow/peanut butter mixture.

Using a buttered or silicone spatula, press the mixture evenly into a 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan which has been buttered or sprayed with non-stick spray or lined with wax paper.

Cut into squares when the mixture cools.
