Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Rice Krispies Treat Recipe

Have I got a yummy treat for you today.  I saw this little gem and just had to give it a try. Luckily for me my neighbor had just come home with her adorable new born baby and was in need of a tasty supper.  I whipped up a some delicious Chili Lime Enchiladas and a batch of these White Chocolate & Peanut Butter krispies for dessert.  Boy was I glad I tried these because they were amazing.  They came together quickly and easily and I only had to use my microwave to melt the chocolate.  Whip these up right away because you are going to love them.


You will need Mini Marshmallows, Mini Chocolate Chips, White Chocolate Chips, Peanut Butter, and Rice Krispies.

Slowly melt the chocolate in a microwave safe dish.  I started by lowering the power to 50% and went for 1 minute, stirred, and then nuked in 30 second increments.  Make sure to stir between each nuking. 

Add the Peanut Butter into the melted White Chocolate

and mix it all together well.  At this point you should probably enjoy a little taste..just to make sure it is as good as you imagine it is.

Add the Rice Krispies in with the White Chocolate/PB mixture.  This dish was too small so I actually moved it to a bigger dish when I realized that mixing without spilling was impossible.

Add in the Mini Mallows and the Mini Chocolate Chips and mix together well but gently.

Spray a 9x9 dish with non-stick spray.

Then add the mixture and gently press down.  No need to crush it..just press a bit.

Top with a few extra Mini Chocolate Chips and let it set up for an hour or two.  When the chocolate has hardened cut them up.

Make sure to take some to your neighbor who is in desperate need of a meal. 


Then you can enjoy one for yourself.


Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Rice Krsipies Treat Recipe
Source:  Cookies and Cups

12 oz Bag White Chocolate Chips
1/2 C Creamy Peanut Butter
3 C Rice Krispies Cereal
1 1/2 C Mini Marshmallows
1/4 C Mini Chocolate Chips plus a bit extra for Garnish

Lightly spray a 9x9 dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Using a microwave safe bowl melt the White Chocolate Chips in the microwave.  Set the power to 50% and start by setting the time to 1 minute.  Stir the Chocolate and stick back in continuing to use 50% power in 30 second increments until the Chocolate is fully melted.  Be careful to stir well between each use of the microwave.  You don't want to over melt the Chocolate or it will turn out hard and weird.

Once the Chips are fully melted add in the Peanut Butter and mix together really well.  In a large bowl add the Rice Krispies, Mini Chocolate Chips, and Mini Marshmallows.  If the Chocolate mix is really warm you may want to wait a few before you add in the highly meltables but I just threw them right in.  Mix everything together gently but thoroughly.

Transfer the Krsipies mixture to the dish and press it down gently.  No need to press too hard and crush everything together.  Sprinkle a TBSP or two of the Mini Chocolate Chips on top pressing them down a bit to make them look very pretty.  Allow them to cool for an hour or two. 

Cut into treats and Enjoy.
