This recipe is one that my friend Katie gave me. She's a Pampered Chef consultant, and I'm pretty sure she got it from there. This is like rice crispy treats gone wild. They are so delicious! If you ever want to wow someone with a fancy rice crispy, this is definitely the way to go.
Ingredients
1/4 cup dry-roasted peanuts
3 cups mini pretzels (about 1 2/3 cups crushed), divided
3 cups crispy rice cereal
3/4 cup butter, divided
1 bag mini marshmallows (10.5 oz bag)
1/2 cup light corn syrup, divided
1 bag peanut butter morsels (10 oz bag)
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
- Grease a 9 x 13 pan with butter and set aside.
- Coarsely chop the peanuts; set aside. Place pretzels into a large resealable plastic bag; coarsely crush with the flat side of a meat tenderizer. Set aside 1/3 cup of the pretzels. Place remaining pretzels and cereal in a large mixing bowl.
- Place 6 Tbsp of the butter in a microwavable bowl and microwave until melted. Add marshmallows; microwave again for 60-90 seconds. Stir until marshmallows are completely melted. Immediately add marshmallow mixture to pretzel/cereal bowl and mix thoroughly. Spread mixture evenly into prepared pan, and firmly press down.
- Combine 2 Tbsp of the butter and half the corn syrup in microwavable bowl, and microwave until butter is melted. Stir in the peanut butter morsels and mix until melted (this mixture is going to be stiff). Spread peanut butter mixture over cereal/pretzels.
- Place remaining butter and corn syrup in another microwavable bowl and microwave until butter is melted. Stir in chocolate chips and mix until smooth. Spread chocolate mixture evenly over the peanut butter mixture.
- Sprinkle with peanuts and reserved pretzels. Allow to harden (you can place in freezer for 5-10 minutes for faster set time). Cut into pieces and eat!
