This is one of those unhealthy, but fun and easy recipes that kids will love. This recipe is a version of your basic rice crispy treat. This version, however, is a little fancier, if a rice crispy treat can be fancy.

This rice crispy treat has peanut butter and chocolate in it. What goes better with marshmallows and rice crispy than peanut butter and chocolate? Rice crispy treats on their own are good, but add peanut butter and chocolate, and they are even better.
