Happy Friday, friends! So glad the weekend is almost here. If you are a fan of chewy, gooey, chocolaty and peanut buttery, you are going to love these peanut butter Rice Krispy treat topped brownies!
These are so dangerously simple. It’s a soft and gooey brownie layer topped with a supremely chewy peanut butter Rice Krispy treat layer for an ultra chocolaty, ultra peanut buttery, ultra munchable brownie delight.
To make, just prepare a batch of your favorite brownies – I used a box of Ghirardelli brownie mix – they are so wonderfully rich!
And as soon as they come out of the oven, you can start your peanut butter Rice Krispy treats! Combine sugar and corn syrup in a heavy bottomed sauce pan (Sir Mix-a-Lot style) over high heat.
When it comes to a boil, remove it from the heat…
And add insanely indulgent amounts of peanut butter.
Stir well.
Now add your Rice Krispies to a big bowl…
And pour on the peanut buttery goodness.
Stir to combine…
And immediately press on top of the brownies.
Oh! Btw, I hardly ever, ever line my baking dishes with foil (I’m normally way to lazy to be bothered..), but you’ll probably want to for these. It’s really the only way to get them out so you can cut into these babies! :)
That’s it!! Can you believe how quick and easy these went together? Definitely dangerous for such a delicious delight.
Since I used an 8×8 brownie mix (instead of a 9×13 brownie mix) I had a little of the peanut butter krispy treats left over. Aww. What ever am I going to do?
I’m still wringing my hands with worry over that one. Snort.
