A no-bake twist on a classic favorite! These Muddy Buddy Rice Krispies are crunchy, chocolatey, peanut buttery, and coated in powdered sugar. Quick to make and perfect for parties or snacking.

Ingredients

6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

2 cups chocolate chips

½ cup creamy peanut butter

¼ cup unsalted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ½ cups powdered sugar (or ½ cup for lighter coating)

Instructions

Melt Chocolate and Peanut Butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

Add Butter and Vanilla: Stir in butter and vanilla until fully combined.

Coat the Cereal: Place Rice Krispies in a large bowl. Gently fold in the chocolate-peanut butter mixture until evenly coated.

Cool and Set: Spread mixture onto a lined baking sheet and let cool for 15–20 minutes.

Dust with Powdered Sugar: Transfer cooled cereal mixture into a large resealable bag, add powdered sugar, and shake gently to coat (or sprinkle if preferred).

Cut and Serve: Cut into squares and enjoy!

Notes

To reduce sweetness, use dark chocolate or reduce the powdered sugar amount.

Add-ins: Try mini marshmallows, crushed pretzels, or chopped nuts for extra texture.

Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Best enjoyed within a few days while fresh and crunchy.
