Ingredients
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
- 6 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 cups mini Reese's puffs cereal
- Mini chocolate chips or mini Reese's pieces optional
Instructions
- Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large pot, melt the butter and peanut butter over low heat. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows and stir constantly until they’re completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the pot from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the Reese’s Puffs cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture.
- Stir gently until all the cereal is coated evenly with the marshmallow mixture.
- Pour the cereal mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Using a spatula or lightly greased hands, press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.
- If you’re adding mini chips or Reese's, sprinkle them evenly over the top of the bars and gently press them down so they stick.
- Let the bars cool at room temperature for about an hour, or until they’re set.
- Once cooled, cut into squares or bars and enjoy!
