If this isn’t your first visit to Hungry Six, you probably already know that I am absolutely obsessed with anything involving a combination of chocolate and peanut butter. If you do not go crazy for this flavor combo, well you should just skip to the next recipe. Otherwise, these Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispies are right up your alley! This recipe is a decadent twist on classic Rice Krispy Treats. Making these takes only a few minutes, and no oven is necessary!
Here are some tips for making my Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispies:
- I like to line my baking dish with wax paper because it prevents the Krispies from sticking to the baking dish, and it also makes it easier to remove the bars from the dish to slice them. You could also grease the baking dish if you do not have wax paper or if you would rather not use it.
- I also like to use a piece of wax paper to press down the Krispies to make them flat. If you do not want to use wax paper for this, you can use a rubber spatula that you have sprayed with cooking spray, or a piece of plastic wrap that you have sprayed with cooking spray.
- You want to be sure to let the chocolate on these bars cool and harden completely before slicing them. You can leave them at room temperature to cool, or you can stick them in the fridge or freezer to speed up the process.
