#2922 - Krispy Marshmallow Bars

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 box Duncan Hines chewy fudge brownie mix
1 - 10.5oz. bag mini marshmallows
1 1/2 cups Nestle's semi-sweet chocolate bits
1 cup Jif creamy peanut butter
1 TBSP butter
1 1/2 cups rice krispies cereal

Prepare brownies according to box directions, baking them in a 9 x 13 cake pan. Remove from oven--spread all of the mini marshmallows over the hot brownies. Return to oven and bake 3 minutes longer so marshamallows will melt. Remove from oven and set aside. In a saucepan over low heat add chocolate bits, peanut butter and butter--cook/stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat--add rice krispies cereal--mix well. Spread the hot mixture all over the marshmallow layer. Cool completely. Refrigerate until cold. Cut into bars or squares.
