  1. Step 1

    Prep pan: Grease a 9×13 baking pan and line with parchment (see Notes for tips).

  2. Step 2

    Melt the marshmallows: In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Add peanut butter: Remove from the heat. Stir in peanut butter, vanilla, and salt until fully combined.

  4. Step 4

    Mix in the cereal: Add Rice Krispies and mix until every piece is coated.

  5. Step 5

    Press into the pan: Transfer to the prepared pan and firmly press into a thick, even layer. A metal spoon or spatula is ideal for this.

  6. Step 6

    Make the chocolate layer: Melt chocolate chips and vegetable oil in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl in 20–30 second bursts, stirring in between. Pour over the cereal layer and spread using a silicone spatula.

  7. Step 7

    Optional garnish: Finish with a light sprinkle of chopped salted peanuts and flaky sea salt.

  8. Step 8

    Set: Let sit at room temp 1–2 hours or refrigerate 30–45 minutes. Slice into bars.
