Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups candy corn Use fresh candy corn for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter Not the 'natural' kind, unless you like a separation challenge.
  • 1.5 cups roasted salted peanuts Alternatively, use unsalted for a sweeter bar.
  • 2 cups crispy rice cereal For texture.
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Melt the butter and peanut butter together in a big saucepan over medium heat. Stir until smooth.
  • Add the marshmallows and candy corn to the melted mixture, stirring until melted and sticky.
  • Turn off the heat and mix in the crispy rice cereal and peanuts.
  • Quickly press the mixture into a foil-lined square pan (8x8) using buttered hands.
  • Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars.

Notes

Let everything cool before you slice to prevent falling apart. Store in an airtight container with layers of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
