peanut butter rice krispy treats









I love General Conference weekend.  We totally eat ourselves through it!  We started off the day with my husband's buttermilk pancakes.  After the first session we had citrus cream cheese pull-apart rolls, cocktail wieners and stuffed mushrooms.  Following the second session we enjoyed apple orchard pork roast, a really yummy salad, rolls, watermelon and these peanut butter rice krispy treats.  I've always liked peanut butter rice krispy treats but this was my first time making them.  Why?  Because I was always hoping I'd stumble across the recipe. I never thought to look for the recipe online!  Duh.

peanut butter rice krispy treats (Kellog's)
3 tablespoons butter
1 package (10 ounces) regular marshmallows
1/2 cup peanut butter
6 cups Rice Krispies

In a large saucepan melt butter over low heat.  Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted.  Remove from heat.  Stir in peanut butter until melted.  Add rice krispies cereal.  Stir until wel coated.
Using buttered spatula or wax paper evenly press mixture into 13x9x92-inch pan coated with cooking spray.  Cool.  Cut into 2-inch squares.

What I have to say- I squeezed all of mine into a 9x9 because I had run out of 9x13 pans and let me tell you they were a little packed in.  That's okay because we thought they were delicious anyway.
