Ingredients for Peanut Butter and Fluff Rice Krispie Treats
I love these Rice Krispie Treats because you only need a few simple ingredients to put together a decadent and delicious dessert. Here is your (very short!) shopping list:
- Marshmallows: For this fun Rice Krispie Treats recipe, you’ll need a standard 16-ounce bag of marshmallows! You can use mini marshmallows or standard sized ones, but make sure not to skimp and use a full bag!
- Rice Krispies: Obviously an essential ingredient in Rice Krispie Treats!
- Butter: Unsalted or salted butter is fine! This will help keep your treats soft and chewy and prevent them from drying out.
- Salt: Salt is the most underrated ingredient in baked goods. A pinch of salt deepens the flavor of any sweet treat, so don’t skip it!
- Peanut butter: We recommend using a traditional creamy peanut butter like Jiff or Skippy. A natural brand won’t build or hold its shape like the good cheap stuff, but if it’s all you have on hand it will absolutely work! Just don’t melt!
- Marshmallow Fluff: If you’ve eaten a fluffernutter sandwich before, then you know that marshmallow fluff is an absolute necessity in these Pb+Fluff Rice Krispie Treats!
How to spice up your pb + fluff Rice Krispie Treats
- Add peanut butter cup
- Replace the creamy peanut butter with crunchy ones
Tips for the best peanut butter and fluffy rice krispie treats
Homemade Rice Krispie Treats are a cinch, and with these quick tips, you’ll have perfectly soft and gooey peanut butter and fluffy Rice Krispie Treats in no time!
- Be sure to grease your pan: I won’t sugarcoat it – these Pb + Fluff Rice Krispie Treats are STICKY. To keep these bad guys from turning into a sticky mess, I like to line my pan and Grease it to make your rice krispie treats easy to pop out of your pan!
- Don’t overcook the marshmallows: If you stir in the rice krispies while the marshmallows are still cooking, you’ll end up cooking some of your granola as well. This can result in a chewy and stale-tasting rice krispie treat, so make sure to remove the butter and marshmallow mixture from the heat before mixing everything together.
- Allow them to fully cure before cutting: I understand the urge to inhale these the moment they’re in the pan, but it’ll just be a mess if you try to eat these before they set up. Let them set for at least an hour or pop them in the freezer for even quicker setup!
- Store in an airtight container to keep them from drying out: Nobody likes stale rice krispie treats, so store your rice krispie treats in an airtight container or plastic bag to keep them from drying out. I like to keep them in the fridge so they stay fresh for as long as possible!
These treats are a delicious combination of sweet, creamy and crunchy flavors that are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth! Enjoy every bite my friends!

ingredients
- 16 ounces Marshmallows (1 standard sized bag or about 8 cups mini marshmallows)
- 1/2 Cup unsalted butter
- pinch of salt
- 6 cups Rice Krispies muesli
- 1/3 Cup creamy peanut butter*, melted
- 1/3 Cup marshmallow fluff
instructions
- Line a 9 x 9 pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Put aside.
- Place butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Melt the butter while stirring constantly. Once the butter has melted, add the marshmallows and salt. Using a rubber spatula, stir the marshmallows until completely melted, being careful not to burn any marshmallows. Remove from the heat immediately
- Add the Rice Krispies and fold to completely cover the granola.
- Microwave the peanut butter for 15 seconds or until slightly melted.
- Add the melted peanut butter and fluff to the batter and fold a few times to distribute the peanut butter without completely mixing in the peanut butter and fluff. You want there to be thick swirls.
- Using a rubber spatula coated with cooking spray, add the mixture to the prepared pan to press the mixture into an even layer.
- Let cool for at least an hour before slicing into twelve Rice Krispie treats. Enjoy!
