Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Bars

Ingredients:

1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 bag (10.5 oz.) mini marshmallows
1 tsp. vanilla
4 cups Rice Krispies

Directions:

Grease and line an 8 X 8 inch pan with parchment paper.  Make sure the paper reaches over the edges of the pan so that it's easy to lift out.

In a large pot over medium heat, add in the peanut butter, chocolate and butter.  Continually stir until it melts down completely.  Add in the marshmallows and continue to stir until they melt down.  Once everything is melted and combined, take it off the heat and stir in the vanilla and then the rice krispies.

Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.  Let it sit out at room temperature for about an hour to set and then pop it in the fridge.  After cool cut into squares.  Best served at room temperature.
