Peanut Butter Cup Crispies



Next in the rice crispy series, we have peanut butter cup rice crispies. These are richer and probably more addicting than the cake batter ones so beware!




Begin with a container of peanut butter cups around 20 or so.





Cut them, smoosh them, or break them however you like.





Now for the extra peanut butter and chocolate...Spoon out about 1/2 cup of pb into a bowl and cover with 1 cup chocolate chips. Microwave until melty and stir.





Place 1/4 cup butter in a sauce pan and add one package of mini marshmallows.  Stir in peanut butter and chocolate mixture until whole mixture is smooth.





Take smooth mixture off the heat and stir in 6 cups rice crispies. Press into a cake pan (coating fingers with butter makes this easier) and top with crumbled peanut butter cups.






Being a big fan of sea salt, I recommend sprinkling these little crystals over your glorious peanut butter cup treat.





Chill in fridge for an hour or so to solidify the shape.
