A delicious twist on the traditional Rice Krispie Bars, this Chocolate Peanut Butter version is in a league of its own.
Confession.
There are two recipes that, over the years, have become my Achilles Heel.
Barefoot Contessa’s Outrageous Oreo Brownies. Try as I might, I have given up on successfully making the recipe and shall live vicariously through others.
Because the ingredients are just too expensive to continue to waste them in my failed attempts.
And Rice Krispie Bars. As strange as that may sound. I mean, I can make a decadent Creme Brulee that will leave you looking for more, but I can’t master a traditional kid treat that EVERYBODY makes?
I don’t know. Something about the part when I’m mixing the marshmallows with the Rice Krispies.
So it should come as a big surprise that when I saw this recipe on Elise’s site, I decided to make them.
I think I was #partydrunk.
That moment pre- or post-party when you are too delirious from all the planning to really act rationally.
I was heading to the last planning session before a friend and I threw a party for 65 people. I wanted to bring something to snack on, you know, to keep us going, saw this recipe, and here we are.
Clearly I wasn’t thinking straight, given my Rice Krispie history, but somehow this one worked.

Super simple to make, you might even have the ingredients on hand. It’s the perfect thing to bring to a summer fete at a friend’s house, a block party, or a last minute planning sesh when you need brainstorm (raising my hand).
