Recipe: Peanut Butter Crispies

Today's recipe involves absolutely zero baking - a little warming - but no baking! What could be easier?
These sweet treats are super rich and super tasty. Not so healthy, but a little of what you fancy does you good right?

I've appropriated it from an American recipe you can find here, so it uses 'cups' as measurements. If you don't have a set, I really recommend you pick one up - you'll be surprised how much use you'll get out of them!

You will need:

1 cup golden syrup

1/2 cup white granulated sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1.5 cups of peanut butter (crunchy or smooth - it's up to you!)

2 tsps vanilla extract

4 cups Rice Krispies

200g dark chocolate

1. Line a medium, high sided baking tray with baking parchment.

2. Pour the sugars and syrup into a pan and warm until combined - bring to the boil. Take off the heat, add the peanut butter and mix well.

3. Mix in vanilla extract and Rice Krispies. Spread into the lined baking tray.

4. Melt the chocolate, then pour and smooth over the Krispie mix. Allow to cool at room temperature until completely set. Cut into squares and enjoy with a hot chocolate on a cold autumn eve!
