Main Ingredients
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and unsalted butter.
  2. Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth and fully melted.
  3. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  4. Pour the Rice Krispies cereal into the melted chocolate mixture and gently fold together until the cereal is evenly coated.
  5. Transfer the coated cereal into a clean, large bowl.
  6. Gradually sift powdered sugar over the mixture, stirring gently to coat all the cereal clusters thoroughly.
  7. Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and let cool for about an hour until set and firm.
  8. Break into bite-sized pieces and serve or store in an airtight container.

Notes

Muddy Buddy Rice Krispies can be enjoyed as a snack or dessert. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week, or freeze for up to three months. Experiment with nut butters and chocolate varieties for unique flavors.
