. Peanut Butter: Use creamy peanut butter for a smooth texture, but you can use chunky peanut butter if you want added crunch.
. Marshmallows: For an extra gooey texture, add an additional cup of mini marshmallows.
. Pressing the Mixture: Be gentle when pressing the mixture into the pan to avoid compacting it too much, which can make the treats overly dense.
Variations
1. Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats
Melt 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips with the peanut butter for a chocolate-infused version.
2. Butterscotch Peanut Butter Treats
Replace the chocolate chips with butterscotch chips for a sweet twist that pairs wonderfully with the peanut butter.
3. Peanut Butter Pretzel Krispie Treats
Add 1 cup crushed pretzels to the mixture for an added salty crunch that enhances the peanut butter flavor.
