Peanut butter mixed with salty pretzels, crunchy Rice Krispies cereal, chocolate chips and marshmallows melted into thick gooey krispie treats. To top it off, chocolate drizzle. Yummmm! These rice krispie treats are quick and easy to make. Perfect sweet & salty treat for any event!
I created this sweet treat with my sister. We were craving rice krispie treats, but we were also craving chocolate. I also had a bag of pretzels on handed that needed to be used. So we got creative. This took more than one try to get right, but once we finally got it we couldn’t stop eating them. Highly recommend trying these Peanut Butter Pretzel Krispy Treats w/Chocolate Drizzle for your next event or just something fun to make when you are craving something salty sweet! As always, I love to hear your thoughts.
