Holidays always remind me of fresh baking. Whether it’s the smell throughout the house while I bake, or the thoughtful gift someone has given me. What a perfect way to enjoy the holidays.

Above are some cookbooks on baking…

I have learned that for a recipe to work for me, the easier the better. This one has never failed me. **Only issue is it contains peanut butter, but it could be replaced with an alternative.

Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats

  • 4 tbsp salted butter
  • 10 ounce bag mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies

Instructions

  1. Spray a 9x9” casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper
  2. In a large sauce pan/pot, melt the butter on low heat
  3. When melted keep the heat on low and add marshmallows
  4. When they begin to soften and melt, add peanut butter
  5. Constantly stir so everything evenly melts (Roughly 2 minutes)
  6. Turn off heat and remove from stove
  7. Stir in vanilla extract
  8. Add in Rice Krispies until evenly coated
  9. Pour mixture into casserole dish (it will look loose). Spray hand with nonstick cooking spray and pat down the mixture.
