Double Chocolate Marshmallow Crispy Bars were one of my favorite childhood treats.
Ingredients
½c.unsalted butterat room temperature
¾c.sugar
2large eggs
1tsp.pure vanilla extract
¾c.all-purpose flour
2T.cocoa
¼tsp.baking powder
¼tsp.kosher salt
2c.mini marshmallows
1c.semi-sweet chocolate chips
1c.creamy peanut butter
1.5c.Rice Krispies cereal
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 9'' x 13'' pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla and stir to combine. Add flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Spread batter into prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes. Do not over bake. Sprinkle marshmallows evenly over the top and bake 3 minutes longer. Cool completely on a rack.
Once pan is cool, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter over low heat, stirring to combine. Pour in the Rice Krispies cereal and spread mixture evenly over the marshmallow layer.
Once set, cut into bars. They will cut easier if the top layer is allowed time to set up, especially if they are chilled in the refrigerator a bit.
Notes
This is a favorite childhood treat from Mom’s recipe box, a recipe she got from Dinah K. after a church potluck.
