  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Holiday, Desserts, Chocolate

 Ingredients List

  • 3/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 4 1/2 cups puffed rice cereal
  • 8 ounces chopped chocolate or chocolate chips (I used bittersweet)

 Directions

1. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper, letting some paper hang over each side.

2. In a 3 quart saucepan, combine the corn syrup and sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture comes to a boil.

3. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the peanut butter until smooth and combined.

4. Add in the cereal and stir until well coated.

5. Press the mixture into the lined pan, and set aside.

6. In a large microwave safe bowl, heat the chocolate on 50 percent power at 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until completely melted and smooth.

7. Spread the melted chocolate over the cereal mixture.

8. Let stand until firm (If you wish to speed up the process, you can refrigerate the bars, but make sure to bring them back to room temperature before serving).

9. Hold the parchment paper from both sides and lift the bars out of the pan.

10. Cut into 16 equal portions.
