Instructions

Grease and line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper. Allow the paper to reach over the edges of the pan for easy removal.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt down the peanut butter, chocolate, and butter.
Add in the marshmallows and continue to stir until melted and smooth.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla, followed by the rice cereal.
Dump the mixture into the prepared pan and press it in evenly.
Chill the bars for about 45 minutes or until set.
When you’re ready to serve, melt the 2 tablespoons of peanut butter in the microwave then drizzle over top. Cut into 9 large bars or 16 small bars and enjoy!
