Brownies on Steroids


These are not for the faint-of-heart.  One bite is worth about 6 months of chocolateness.  Brownies topped with peanuts and melted Reese's peanut butter cups, then topped with a Rice-Krispy-treat made with chocolate and peanut butter.  Have 911 on the speed dial.

BROWNIES ON STEROIDS

1 batch brownies (boxed mix)
1/2 cup salted peanuts, chopped (if you don't have salted, add some kosher salt)
1 cup chopped Reese's peanut butter cups
1 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 Tbsp butter
3 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Mix brownies according to directions, but underbake a bit (20-25 minutes) in a 9x13 baking dish.  Remove from the oven and top with chopped peanuts and peanut butter cups and bake for 4-6 minutes.

While they are finishing baking, melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter.  Stir in cereal.  Remove brownies from oven and evenly pour chocolate mixture over top.  Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
