- Spray an 8-inch square pan with oil and press a piece of parchment paper into the bottom of the pan. The oil will hold the parchment in place, so it won't wiggle around later. Since this recipe moves quickly, it's also a good idea to add the cereal to a large mixing bowl, so it's ready to go later.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the honey to a boil. As soon as it's bubbling, set a timer for 1 minute and let it boil until the timer goes off. Turn down the heat if the honey starts to bubble towards the top of the pan.
- When the timer goes off, remove the honey from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and salt. As soon as the mixture is smooth, pour it over the cereal in the large mixing bowl. Stir well, until the cereal is well coated. It will start to thicken up as it cools, and will be very sticky.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and press HARD to pack the cereal into the bottom of the pan. Place the pan in the fridge or freezer, so the bars can cool completely. When they are totally cool, they are ready to slice and serve, unless you'd like to add the chocolate topping below.
- For a chocolate topped bar, melt a 1/2 cup of dark chocolate chips in the microwave, or over a double-boiler. When the chocolate is melted, spread it over the top of the bars and place the pan in the freezer briefly, just until the chocolate is hardened. Then the bars are ready to slice and serve.
- Leftover rice crispy treats can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, but they will become slightly softer over time. For the crispiest results, I recommend storing them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Ingredients:
- 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter (or other nut butter (I use a full cup for extra gooey treats!))
- 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- ¾ - 1 c dark chocolate chips (milk chocolate will work as well)

- In a small sauce pan, heat peanut butter, maple/honey, and vanilla over low heat until melted and combined evenly. You can also do this in a microwave safe bowl in 20 second increments until smooth and drippy.
- Pour mixture over cereal in a medium mixing bowl and stir gently to combine and evenly coat.
- Press mixture (press really hard!) into an 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper and chill until cool. Use a spoon or spatula, or even the bottom of a glass to firmly press so it will hold as bars.
- Melt the chocolate in a bowl in the microwave in 20 second increments. Stir between each round until melted. Do not over heat the chocolate. When most of the chips are melted, keep stirring until smooth.
- Pour chocolate coating over peanut butter mixture and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Chill until chocolate has set. You can add a chocolate drizzle as well after the layer of chocolate has set if desired.
- Cut into squares and serve! I like to chill mine for several hours for easier cutting. Store in an air tight container for about 5 days. You can keep them in the refrigerator if desired--I prefer them that way!
