Snickers Rice Krispie Treats


Makes 36 bars
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 – 10-ounce package marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1-½ cups salted peanuts
  • 1-½ – 11-ounce bags caramels
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2-½ cups milk chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Line a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  3. Add the marshmallows to the melted butter and stir until completely dissolved.
  4. Add the Rice Krispies and stir until the cereal is evenly coated in the marshmallow-butter mixture.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly and press gently into the pan using the bottom of a measuring cup.
  6. Sprinkle the peanuts over the top of the Rice Krispies mixture.
  7. In a medium-sized bowl, add the caramels and the heavy cream. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between each interval, until the caramels are fully melted.
  8. Pour the caramel sauce over the top of the peanut layer.
  9. Place the chocolate chips in a medium bowl and microwave in 30 second increments, stirring in between each interval, until fully melted.
  10. Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the caramel layer.
  11. Set the treats aside for about 1 hour, allowing the chocolate to set completely, before cutting and enjoying.

Chef’s Tip

  • Lightly spray the bottom of the measuring cup with pan spray to prevent the Rice Krispies from sticking to the bottom of it.
