Rice Crispy Treats with peanut butter and chocolate

11 years ago

After searching the forum and google, I can't find the recipe for rice crispy treats with a layer of peanut butter on top and then a chocolate layer on top of the peanut butter. I saw these and wanted to make them, but the only recipes I found are for peanut butter mixed into the rice crispies. I'd like these decadent bars to have three separate layers; rice crispies, peanut butter, and chocolate

Does anyone have these? Thanks in advance for your help.

Try the link to the Rice Krispie treat page. There are numerous ways to make them including the pictured one with chocolate, peanut butter and butterscotch.

Actually, the Kellogg page was the first place I went, but they don't have the recipe I've eaten...somewhere! This is what I'm trying to duplicate:

The bottom layer is the crispies; the second layer is peanut butter; and the top layer is chocolate. There wasn't any butterscotch in them and the peanut butter wasn't mixed with the rice crispies. The crispies also weren't chocolate.

This should be something I could figure out how to do, but I'm out of ideas.

I wish I could remember who made them!

This is easy as could be and everyone thinks you fussed. From Kraft Foods 1993 pamphlet on Holiday Desserts: One Bowl Chocolate Fudge Ingredients: 2 packages (8 squares each) semi sweet chocolate 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts Microwave chocolate and milk in a large microwavable bowl on high for 2-3 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring halfway through heating time. Stir in vanilla and walnuts. Spread in greased 8 inch square pan. Refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares. Makes 4 dozen Options: Rocky Road Fudge: Add 1 cup miniature marshmallows with vanilla and walnuts. Peanut Butter Fudge: Omit walnuts. Drop 1/2 cup peanut butter by teaspoonfuls on top of fugde. Swirl with knife to mable-ize. Peppermint Fudge: Omit vanilla and walnuts. Stir in 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies. Coconut Walnut Fudge: Add 1 cup flaked coconut, toasted with vanilla and walnuts. Garnish with additional coconut. I've made the regular fudge, the peanut butter chocolate and the peppermint fudge. All have gone over well. I have a brother-in-law that will hunt for the container that I bring to Christmas. He'll eat the entire container himself!

They turned out so cute! Everyone loved them. And the microwaving worked perfectly. Emily, you're too funny. That's why I had to do this, or I'd have eaten all the scraps too! As it was, I pigged out on way to many treats at the school parties today and now I feel sick :-P Khandi, I wanted to put red and pink m&m's in them, but worried about allergies. Thanks for the advice, as usual. Nancy

Cookalong #26---------Peanut Butter!!!
Q
Comments (37)
I do so love these cookalongs! I wasn't able to participate this time, due to being sick as a dog during most of it. I had the flu and now a bunch of fluid has taken up residence in my lungs and refuses to leave. Anyway, here's my two peanut butter contributions, neither of which I was able to make this time, but both of which I have tried and are good, and relatively healthy. Peanut sauce for pasta (from the Smuckers Peanut Butter jar lid) 1 cup natural peanut butter (not the hydrogenated kind with added sugar) 1/2 cup warm water 1/2 cup ketchup 1 TBLSP soy sauce (I use low salt) 1 tsp. garlic powder (or 2 cloves garlic, minced) 1 1/2 tsp. rice wine vinegar (or cider vinegar, but rice is great!) Can add some ginger, hot pepper and lime juice if you want it with more kick. Combine to for a smooth sauce. Pour over pasta and sauteed vegetables. Saute an onion and a green or red pepper at the very least for this pasta. You could add broccoli and many other veggies if you are a veggie lover like me. Can also add pork, chicken or tofu. Serve over pasta--lo mein noodles, or any other shape of pasta you like, or rice pasta or buckwheat pasta. Garnish with chopped roasted peanuts and cilantro or parsley if you like it. Frozen Banana Treats (these are GREAT to make with kids, and are at least a little bit on the healthy side with milk and peanut butter providing protein) 1 large banana 3/4 cup chunky peanut butter 1 1/2 cups milk 1 TBLSP sugar 5 oz. chocolate chips Blend banana, peanut butter, milk and sugar in blender. Put chocolate chips in the bottom of 6 oz. wax cups, pour banana mixture into cups and freeze. Add popsicle sticks after about 1 hour so they will stand upright. Yummy!

My hubby, son and grandson would probably "saint" me if I made these for them..LOL!! I will have to give them a try as they love choc/peanut butter anything! Also...every easter hubby makes a point of telling where the "rice krispy bunnies" are being sold...I am sure he is really just turning 6 not 60!! Thanks for the recipe :)

Happygram - did you take the time to read through all the recipes at the link? I was not suggesting the butterscotch one was the recipe you were looking for - just that there were many recipes to choose from.

I would probably make a thin layer of normal rice krispies treats, then put on a layer of Buckeye filling, chill, and then top with melted chocolate. I would also cool at room temp and score the chocolate before chilling completely. Good luck and let us know if you find it!

Maybe they melted peanut butter chips and after it had set up, added the chocolate.

I think a layer of peanut butter cookie dough would be great on there, but you can just take powdered sugar and add to the peanut butter to thicken it up. Peanut butter chips would be harder yet depending on the texture you're looking to achieve. Another option is to top the bar with chocolate and ice it with a peanut butter icing.
