Snickers Rice Krispie buns
With “Chocolate Week” well and truly upon us, Kelly and I decided to make some chocolate goodies.
As much as we love Chocolate Rice Krispie buns, we thought it was time for a change. Here’s our Snickers Krispie Buns – give it a go – they’re GREAT.

Ingredients:
- 100g milk chocolate
- 5 cups of Rice Krispies
- 5 Snickers bars (290g X 5)
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup of crunchy peanut butter
- 25ml of milk to loosen the melting chocolate
You’ll also need: a food processor, 1 saucepan half-filled with water, a glass bowl to sit on top of the saucepan, a very large bowl, a tray that fits into your fridge, and a metal spoon to stir.
Method:
- Place the saucepan of water over a high heat, and place the bowl on top of that.
- Chop the Snickers bars roughly, and blitz in your food processor
- Place the butter into the bowl and allow to melt
- As the butter melts, add the peanut butter and 3/4 of the blitzed Snickers, and stir until all the ingredients have melded
- Pour the Rice Krispies into the large bowl and add the melted ingredients. Mix thoroughly until all of the Krispies have been coated
- Smear the tray with some more unsalted butter and spoon the covered Krispies onto the tray, flattening them to form a sheet about 11/2 to 2cm thick
- Scatter the remaining Snickers pieces on top and lightly press in
- Return the glass bowl to the saucepan and break the milk chocolate into the bowl
- When the chocolate has melted, add the milk and stir until the chocolate has loosened up, then spoon over the Krispie sheet and spread across the surface
- Place the tray into the fridge until the chocolate has fully set – about 30 minutes or so.
Given how delicious these Snickers Krispies are, you won’t have to worry about this next bit – but the Krispie buns are best eaten within 24 hours.

Very tasty recipe. I found it was nicer without the extra milk chocolate on the top as i did one with the chocolate in 1 tray and another without.
