Chocolate Yummies

I wanted to make rice krispie treats one day and usually the recipe was on the cereal box, but this time it was not. I hopped online to http://www.ricekrispies.com/ to get the recipe and found a lot more yummy things to make with rice krispies. I made these chocolate yummies for a church get together and they were gobbled up in a flash. How could they not be good when you have chocolate, peanut butter and marshmallows together?!

Chocolate Yummies

7 Graham Crackers Original
2 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 package (12 oz., 2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
2/3 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter (I don't like crunchy pb so I used creamy and it was great)
3 cups Rice Krispies Cereal


1. Coat 13 x 9 x 2-inch microwave-safe dish with cooking spray. Arrange gragham crackers in single layer in dish, breaking crackers as needed to fit. Sprinkle marshmallows evenly over crackers.

2. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute or until marshmallows are puffy. Remove from microwave. Cool completely.

3. In 2-quart microwave-safe mixing bowl combine chocolate morsels, corn syrup and butter. Microwave on HIGH about 1 1/2 minutes or until chocolate is melted, stirring every 30 seconds. Stir in peanut butter. Add RICE KRISPIES cereal, mixing until combined.

4. Spread evenly over marshmallows. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm. Cut and store in airtight container in refrigerator.
