A quick and easy recipe combining crispy Rice Krispies cereal with gooey marshmallows, chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, and a silky chocolate drizzle for a nostalgic and indulgent treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal (about 180 g)
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows (about 120 g)
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (45 g), softened
  • 10–12 regular-sized Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped roughly
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (170 g)
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream (45 ml)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add 4 cups of mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
  5. Quickly fold in 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal until every flake is coated with the marshmallow mixture.
  6. Gently fold in chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups so they’re evenly distributed without melting too much.
  7. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press down firmly but gently to form an even layer.
  8. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well until smooth and glossy.
  9. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the treats in a zigzag pattern.
  10. Let the treats cool at room temperature for about 1 hour or place in the fridge for 20 minutes for faster setting. Cut into squares once firm and enjoy.

Notes

Melt butter and marshmallows on low heat to avoid burning. Use mini marshmallows for smoother melting. Chop Reese’s Cups just before folding in to keep chunks intact. Melt chocolate in short microwave bursts to prevent scorching. Press treats gently to keep them airy. For a crispy edge, bake at 350°F for 5-7 minutes before adding drizzle.
