Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 0.333333 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped peanuts
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine peanut butter, honey, and butter. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and well combined, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal and chopped peanuts. Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the cereal mixture and gently fold until evenly coated.
Step 4
Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture to the baking dish and press it down firmly into an even layer using a spatula or your hands (tip: slightly wet your hands to prevent sticking).
Step 5
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Step 6
Drizzle or spread the melted chocolate over the pressed mixture in the baking dish. Use a spoon or spatula to create an even layer of chocolate on top.
Step 7
Refrigerate the dish for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm and set.
Step 8
Once set, remove the mixture from the baking dish by lifting the parchment paper. Cut into 12 squares or rectangles and serve.
Step 9
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
