Delicious brownies made with a chocolate peanut butter crunch topping and a marshmallow layer, perfect for dessert lovers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box Ghirardelli brownie mix, prepared as per package instructions
  • 198 grams marshmallow cream
  • 340 grams chocolate chips
  • 385 grams smooth peanut butter
  • 150 grams Rice Krispies cereal

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare the Ghirardelli brownie mix according to the package directions. Bake as instructed, then allow to cool completely in the baking tin.
  2. Once the brownie base is cool, gently spread the marshmallow cream evenly across the surface using a spatula.

  6. Evenly distribute the chocolate peanut butter Rice Krispie mixture over the marshmallow layer. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
  7. Transfer the pan to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours until the topping is set and firm.
  8. Remove from the refrigerator, slice into squares, and serve.

Notes
