Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 6 cups mini marshmallows
• 0.5 cups creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
• 0.5 cups chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by greasing it lightly with butter or non-stick spray. Set it aside.

Step 2

In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat.

Step 3

Add the mini marshmallows to the saucepan and stir continuously until they are completely melted and smooth.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low, and stir in the creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly pour in the Rice Krispies cereal. Stir with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon until the cereal is evenly coated with the peanut butter and marshmallow mixture.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or your hands (lightly greased with butter to prevent sticking) to press the mixture evenly into the dish.

Step 7

If desired, melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the Rice Krispies mixture.

Step 8

Allow the Rice Krispies squares to cool completely at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until set.

Step 9

Cut into 12 squares or desired sizes and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
