About a week ago, I put a photo up on Instagram of the most amazing grown-up version of rice crispy treats (made by none other than the gentleman himself!). I got a few requests for the recipe so here it is! Sorry for the iPhone photo, but I hope it will do!
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
Servings: 24
Ingredients:
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter (creamy)
6 cups Cocoa Krispies or regular Krispies (we use cocoa)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
Step 1:
Place corn syrup and sugar into a 3 quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until sugar dissolves and mixture begins to boil.
Step 2:
Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter. Mix well. Add krispies and stir until well coated. Press mixture into cupcake or miniature cupcake. Set aside.
Note: I’ve had both regular and mini size, and the mini size treats are BY FAR more delicious. They are super rich, so it is the perfect size.
Step 3:
Melt chocolate and butterscotch chips together in 1-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. Spread a dollop on top of each of the treats, and let stand until firm.
Enjoy!
