Had a great weekend. Celebrated my nephew's 10th birthday yesterday (happy birthday Will!) - and, of course, had to bake for the occasion (will post about these delicious cupcakes sometimes this week)!!
Today, went for a nice drive and went to see my cousin for a short visit. Her boyfriend was real happy when he saw me arrive with some muffins and cupcakes!! :)
Today's post is a real easy recipe.
Who doesn't like rice krispies squares??!!
What about rice krispies with peanut butter and a bit of chocolate??!!
They are so quick to prepare - and real tasty too!
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chews (from Rice Krispies)
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup golden corn syrup (used Maple syrup)
1/4 cup crunchy peanut butter (used smooth)
1 1/2 cups RICE KRISPIES* Vanilla Flavour cereal, finely crushed to 3/4 cup (used regular RK and added some vanilla)
3/4 cup semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
1.Combine sugar, corn syrup and peanut butter in large saucepan. Heat over medium heat, about 1 minute, stirring to dissolve sugar. (used the microwave for this)
2.Remove from heat; immediately stir in crushed cereal. Press into 20 cm (8-inch) square baking pan lined on bottom and two sides with foil. Alternately, press about 10 mL (2 tsp) mixture into small candy papers in 4.5 cm (1 3/4-inch) diameter mini muffin/tart pan.
3.Melt chocolate in medium bowl in microwave or over saucepan of boiling water. Stir until smooth. Spread over mixture in pan, or spoon 5 mL (1 tsp) over top in each cup.
4.Let cool to set chocolate. Lift out of pan, remove foil and cut into small bars. Store in covered container up to one week.

I didn't even make it through the whole recipe - I'm going to make these first chance possible. If not immediately. Oh.My!
Those look so yummy!!!!!!!!!! Especially with the syrup substitution!
Those look sooooo good!
I am loving your food photography and all these recipes. My husband was looking at this and said "you're going to make these, right?". He's such a big fan of PB and chocolate!
Oh my goodness these look so yummy! Your baking photos could seriously be in a cookbook!
OH I am going to have to try those. Rice crispy treats are my fav and I Love chocolate and peanut butter.
great shots of your treat!
I bet her boyfriend was real happy to see you! Can't wait to try out some of your recipes in my new kitchen! Your shots are wonderful, and ever so appealing!
Oh man, I can't resist the chocolate/PB combo! These look awesome!
Mmmm, this looks SO SO SO good! Yum. :)
This is just what I was looking for. I need to make an easy to handle bite sized dessert for a chinese auction for my daughters cheer team.
If I made the recipe and only used the candy sized paper cups, about how many would that make?
Hi mysterysinc - this recipe made 24 mini treats. If you make them candy size - I guess it would be around 30-35?? You will love them!
