Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1/2 Stick unsalted butter
- 7 oz. Mini Marshmallows, divided
- 1/2 c. smooth peanut butter, divided
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 4 c. crispy rice cereal, divided
- 1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 c. crushed graham crackers
- 6 peanut butter cups, chopped
Instructions
- Spray an 8-inch-square baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt butter over medium heat until butter melts and begins to brown. It will start to smell nutty and start to foam. When it starts to brown on the bottom, scrape the browned bits off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, then immediately add 5 oz marshmallows, 1/4 c peanut butter and salt. Stir until mixture is smooth. Turn off the heat and add 3 c of the cereal, stirring quickly. Make sure all of the cereal is coated in the marshmallow mixture.
- Pour the cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Press the mixture firmly into the sides and bottoms of the pan.
- Meanwhile, melt chocolate chips in a small glass bowl over a small saucepan filled with barely simmering water. Once the chocolate is melted, stir in the remaining 1/4 c of peanut butter and 1 c of cereal. Pour the peanut butter-chocolate mixture over the marshmallow-cereal base. Press peanut butter cups and crushed graham crackers on top of the chocolate. Let set until firm. (You can speed this up by putting it in the freezer for about 15 minutes.)
- Sprinkle remaining marshmallows on top of the chocolate layer. Place under broiler and heat until marshmallows start to brown.
- Let sit until chocolate firms up again, or slice and serve right away. (The slightly melted chocolate is more campfire-esque.
