Create a festive crisp rice cereal treat by adding a handful of memorable ingredients: peanuts, for crunch; marshmallows, for sweetness; and peanut better, for a smooth shot of rich flavor. This giftable dessert is delicious any time of day, but we prefer it with coffee in the afternoon. Ingredients:
1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate morsels |
1/2 cup peanut butter |
2 cups crisp rice cereal |
1 1/2 cups peanuts |
1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows |
2 (2-ounce) chocolate bark coating squares, melted |
white nonpareils (optional) |
Directions:
1. Microwave chocolate morsels in a large glass bowl at HIGH for 2 minutes or until melted, stirring every 30 seconds. Stir in peanut butter, stirring until well blended.
2. Stir in cereal, peanuts, and marshmallows. Line a 13- x 9-inch pan with foil. Lightly grease foil. Press mixture into foil-lined pan. Drizzle with chocolate. Sprinkle with white nonpareils, if desired.
3. Let stand 1 hour or until firm; cut with a 3-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter to make hearts. Store hearts in an airtight container or place in a candy box, if desired.
4. *6 (2-ounce) almond bark coating squares may be substituted.
5. Note: White nonpareils (tiny decorative beads) are available in cake decorating shops or large supermarkets.
