Chocolate Peanut Butter Marshmallow Treats




Everyone has heard of Rice Krispie treats and of course Scotcheroos but these treats are new to me, they are a combination of the both. The best (term used loosely) ingredients from both recipes and combine into one chocolate cereal square of goodness.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of light corn syrup
1/2 cup of sugar
3/4 cup of peanut butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
21/2 cups of Rice Krispie cereal
1/2 cup mini marshmallows
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Directions:

In a sauce pan stir corn syrup, and sugar. Bring to a boil and stir for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter until melted, add vanilla. Fold in chips, marshmallows and then add the cereal. Stir until blended. Pour into an 8 in greased pan. Cool and then cut into squares. Then ENJOY!





All of the chocolate treats this week were used together to make a great Chocolate Bar for a holiday party that we had. I think you might find a few recipes here to use for your own holiday party.

Have a great weekend! Don't forget to go over to HERE to track SANTA'S journey on Christmas Eve. I think your grandchildren and even your own kids would enjoy it. My nieces and nephews are counting the days!
