Rice krispy treats made with peanut butter and chocolate with an added layer of creamy chocolate and peanut butter ganache.

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispy Treats make the perfect easy no bake treat
Rice Krispy Treats are such a classic favorite of mine.  They are probably one of the first no-bake sweets most of us learned to make when we were growing up.

Chewy, gooey, and super adaptable – a blank canvas for adding in anything and everything your heart desires.  I love all the different ways you can dress them up and they make an easy, no-bake treat that you can whip up with little notice.

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispy Treats make the perfect no bake treat
These Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Krispy Treats start off the same familiar way with some crispy rice cereal, melted butter and marshmallows.

By adding in some creamy peanut butter and melted chocolate, they are transformed into an even more irresistible and decadent dessert. 

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Krispy Treats make the perfect no bake treat
You can never go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter – they make the best combo so I decided to top these rice krispy treats with a layer of chocolate and peanut butter ganache and finished them with a pretty peanut butter drizzle.

If you’re looking for an easy and fun no-bake dessert, rice krispy treats are a perfect family friendly choice to help you feel like a kid again 🙂

Cuisine: American
Keyword: chocolate peanut butter no bake dessert, chocolate rice krispies, easy dessert for kids
Servings: 16 2x2" squares
Calories: 211 kcal
Ingredients
  • 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips I used semi-sweet
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 10-punce package Marshmallows about 4 cups
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ganache:
  • 1-1/4 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
Topping (optional):
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter for drizzling
Instructions
  1. Line an 8x8 square pan with a sheet of aluminum foil coated lightly with cooking spray, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. In a large saucepan, melt chocolate chips and butter over medium heat. Add, salt, peanut butter and marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
  3. Add crispy rice cereal. Stir until well coated.
  4. Using a flat spatula, press mixture firmly and evenly into prepared pan. Allow mixture to cool and set for 30-40 minutes.
To Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Ganache:
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt peanut butter and chocolate chips in 30-second increments until smooth, stirring constantly in between each increment to avoid the chocolate from burning. (Do not over melt). Pour melted chocolate mixture on top of cooled crispy rice cereal and spread evenly using an offset spatula.
  2. Heat peanut butter in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds. Scoop peanut butter into a small ziptop bag with a tiny hole in the corner snipped off. Drizzle peanut butter over the chocolate. Allow to set up and cool completely for about 2 hours on the counter or place in the fridge or freezer for faster set up time. Cut bars into evenly sized squares.
  3. Allow bars to come to room temperature before serving.
