Ingredients:
4 peanut butter cups
2 tbsp peanut butter
6 cups of rice krispies
Directions:
Melt peanut butter and peanut butter cups in a pan with butter. Add 6 cups of rice krispies. Drop and cool on a sheet or press into a
buttered baking dish. Cut into squares
when cool.
This recipe was wrong. The people
that pinned it are obviously missing an ingredient. There were way too many rice krispies and not
enough goo. They didn’t stick
together. I even melted some more peanut
butter, cups and kara syrup together and added that when I realized they weren’t
going to stick. It helped a little bit
but basically you just have flavored rice krispies. Don’t get me wrong, the flavor is
awesome. Sprinkle this on some ice cream or just eat it with a spoon, but these do not work for bars
or cookies. Total bummer.
The pin also said 3 tblsp butter, but it still didnt work for me either. Now using it as ice cream topping whomp whomp
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking this needs the 3 tblsp of butter AND a bag of mini marshmallows melted along with the peanut butter and Reeese's cups. Then it would be pretty much like the orignal Rice Krispies Treats recipe, with the addition of the PB and Reese's. At least I'm going to try it that way this weekend! - Bonnie W.
ReplyDeleteI added a couple tablespoons more of melted butter, 2 more peanut butter cups melted, and almost a whole bag of melted marshmallows just to see if I could save the ingredients. Not a happy homemaker for sure.... GRRR!
ReplyDeleteWish I had seen this review BEFORE trying the recipe. Went back and melted a bag of mini marshmallows in order to salvage.
ReplyDeleteI put off making this recipe because it didn't look like it had enough stuff to make it stick together and guess what it didn't stick together at all. It's just crumbly.
ReplyDeleteIt's the worst recipe I've ever made in my 53 years of cooking!
Yep, came out not sticking together. Got recipe off Facebook. I also added more PB cups & butter trying to salvage, then finally melted the marshmallows & butter to make it stick like regular rice crispy treats. It tastes a little too buttery now. Horrible recipe. Think we've all been dooped.
ReplyDeletewelcome to the club I guess same thing happened to us I will be eating the mixture most of the week for breakfast ours didn't come out either LOL
ReplyDeletemade the same mistake.it will not work as it des not stick.now a pan full of wasted ingredients !!! GRRRRR !!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust made it and went back to see if I forgot an ingredient. Does not stick together. Glad I had a back-up plan for what I was bringing to dinner. Disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI just made this and mine turned out GREAT with a couple added ingredients. I melted 3 tbsp of butter, then I added a small bag of marshmallows and melted those into the butter (in the meantime, I melted 8 Reeses cups in a bowl in the Microwave, careful not to burn them), then when the marshmallows were creamy, I added the melted Reeses cups and 3 tbsp of peanut butter. I mixed it all up and then added 5 cups of Rice Crispies. Mixed them all together and put them on a greased pan. When they cooled, they were perfect and held together just like Rice Crispy Treats usually do. Good Luck all.
ReplyDeleteIncomplete recipe....doesn't work....MM
ReplyDeleteI gues "anonymous" was the smart one!! What a stupid waste of good ingredients!!
ReplyDeleteOn pinterest if you click the link and read the recipe on the blog it was pinned from, there is sugar, corn syrup, over a cup of peanut butter, and chocolate chips in the original recipe.
ReplyDeleteAnnoying!!! Waste of a lot of good ingredients!! My husband kept saying, "when are you gonna make the Reese's dessert?" Boy wont he be disappointed when he gets home!!!
ReplyDeleteso glad you posted. I have waited to do these and had misplaced my recipe form FB. So glad I waited.
ReplyDeleteThanks
My granddaughters and I also failed with the originally published recipe. We decided to make pour some milk on and cereal out of it - it was pretty good!. I'm gonna try and save what's left of the batch with some marshmallow creme.
ReplyDeleteI think we were all victims of an early Halloween prank and I don't think it was very funny!
ReplyDeletei followed the recipe in the picture. 2 tbsp butter, 4 cups, 3 tablespoon peanut butter, 6 cups of rice krispys.. but I added mini marshmallows just added until it was thicker. they formed perfect balls and were awesome!
