If you love peanut butter and chocolate, you will go nuts over these irresistible Reese's Puffs Peanut Butter Cup Rice Krispie Treats<\/strong>. We've kicked up the classic Rice Krispies treat a notch by using chocolatey Reese's Puffs Minis cereal<\/strong> and tossed in some Reese's Cups to make them extra peanut buttery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chocolate and peanut butter are my favorite flavor combination so I am excited to share this recipe with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I'm not sure how long the minis cereals will stick around in the grocery stores, but they are the perfect shape and size to make treats so I'm planning to make a variety of treats using them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This easy no-bake recipe<\/strong> is perfect for kids, parties, or a quick sweet treat anytime. So ditch the oven and whip up a batch of these delightful Reese's Puffs Rice Krispie Treats<\/strong> today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Melt 4 tablespoons of salted butter in a saucepan set over LOW heat. Stir in 10 ounces of marshmallows. Heat, stirring often, until about 75% of the marshmallows have melted. Remove from the heat and stir until melted. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Grease a large mixing bowl with butter and then fill it with 6 cups of Reese's Puffs Minis cereal. Toss in 12 of the Reese's Cups (chopped into pieces.) Pour the melted butter and marshmallows over the cereal. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n We recommend you allow the marshmallows to melt slowly over low heat. Removing the pan from the heat before they are all melted ensures the marshmallows don't get too hot. When you overheat the marshmallows, the sugars crystallize causing hard treats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Fold the marshmallows and cereal together until the cereal is well-coated. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Grease a 9-inch (or 8-inch) square baking pan with butter. Spread the cereal mixture into an even layer. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Gently press the remaining Reese's Cup pieces over the pan of cereal treats. You want them to stick but you don't want to smash them too much.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Let the treats cool at room temperature for at least 45 minutes. Then cut them into 9 rectangles or 12 squares. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Mix in some Reese's Pieces to add color and crunch to these Reese's Puffs Minis Cereal Bars or toss in a handful of peanuts for an extra nutty flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Drizzle on a topping made with chocolate and peanut butter. See our Chex Mix Bars<\/a> for the quick and easy topping recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
