Peanut Butter Rice Krispy Bars... A Little Piece of Heaven On Earth!

Today is only the second day of summer break and I have this desire to achieve something and, well, looking around my house, there is a lot to be achieved. This past week has been insanely busy. So, I have been very neglectful in the cooking department and the cleaning department, and every other department that there is. The To Do List is growing... 

So, after cleaning the kitchen, emptying the dishwasher, reloading it, picking up the living room, cleaning off the coffee table and end tables, running Dave, and some laundry, I decided something sweet was in order.

I love Rice Krispy treats as much as anyone, but I REALLY love peanut butter Rice Krispy treats. 

Enjoy!
