Ingredients
  

For the Bars
  • 4 tablespoons butter Can use margarine in place of butter.
  • 10 ounces mini marshmallows Regular marshmallows can be used, but cut into smaller pieces.
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter Almond butter works for a different taste.
  • 13 ounces Reese's Puffs cereal Other chocolate cereals can be swapped for variety.

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking pan
  • large saucepan
  • spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by greasing a 9x13 inch baking pan with a little butter or cooking spray to prevent the bars from sticking. Set the pan aside.
  2. In a large saucepan, place 4 tablespoons of butter and set it over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the butter is completely melted and bubbly, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Once the butter is melted, add 10 ounces of mini marshmallows to the saucepan. Keep stirring constantly for about 3-5 minutes until the marshmallows are gooey and fluffy.
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup of peanut butter into the melted marshmallow mixture and mix until well-combined and smooth, about 2 minutes.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat, then quickly fold in the 13-ounce box of Reese’s Puffs cereal until thoroughly coated.
  6. Carefully pour the cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Press the mixture evenly into the pan using wet hands or a buttered spoon.
  7. Allow the bars to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Once firm, cut the bars into squares or rectangles.
