I like this recipe because it was very easy and didn't require a lot of ingredients. I thought it was good but gave it four stars because I'm not so sure about the semi-sweet chocolate on top. It was a little too sweet for me.

I can't believe how easy this recipe was to make! I made it before work in about 35 minutes. It got rave reviews by all my co-workers. I didn't have quite enough sugar (about 1 2/3 cup), but I think it turned out just fine. Not too sweet, but with an intense peanut buttery crunch!

I made these as a kid for multiple county fairs - always got a blue ribbon. We didn't use the chocolate. And we used to shape them into logs, but I like the bar idea better. The key to keeping them from being crumbly is to mix REALLY well. It takes a while to mix in the powdered sugar. Also it makes a big difference to use your hands instead of spoon. Now I get to share these with my kids!

Very good! I took this to our New Year's Day dinner, and it was a huge hit. It tasted like a mixture of a reese's cup and a butterfinger (with the crunch from the rice cereal). I really didn't measure, but I used one stick of butter, creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar, mixed by hand, then added the rice cereal until it came together. Poured the chocolate on top and stuck it in the fridge. Too easy.

Make this recipe, and people will ask for more. It is one of the best desserts I have ever had. I noticed that these bars are best served chilled. They seem to get a bit messy when they get to room temperature. However, it doesn't matter because THEY ARE SO GOOD!

Very good treats. Took them to work and they were gone in a flash. Simple to make, and i found that using my hands to mix was easier than a spoon.

These are great, I used regular (not natural) peanut butter which works better, and I used 2 cups of chocolate chips. Delicious!

My husband really loved these bars. I thought they had a good taste, but were hard to cut and were very crumbly. I may try this recipe with a little honey mixed in next time to keep the bars together.

A great quick and easy desert! I would recommend using a bit less peanut butter-maybe 1 1/2 cups, and a bit more chocolate. All of that peanut butter made it a bit too rich.

Delicious! A few changes I made: I added chocolate chips in the batter instead of melted chocolate over top. I love it this way. Also, after I refrigerate if for a bit, I cut it into squares and put them in baggies to freeze them. That way it lasts a lot longer and I like the frozen treat. I don't know if others will though. I eat one of these a day; I'm addicted!

These were good. I did alter the recipe based on the other reviews and I received good feedback. And I added chocolate on top. The next day, they were soggy, though. Oh well. Still good.

Even my three year old who loves peanut butter and chocolate didn't want any. It wasn't horrible, but it just wasn't good.

This recipe is similar to one we used all the time growing up. We use 1 c. peanut butter, 1 c. granulated sugar and 1 c. light karo instead. Also, we don't add the peanut butter until after the mixture has come to a boil and been removed from the heat. And we use 6-8 cups of rice krispies. The key to keeping them from crumbling is "proper compaction" as my father would say. Then we melt the milk chocolate chips directly on top of the bars using a hair blow dryer. I know that's really odd, but that's how it's done at my house. Put in the freezer for 20 minutes to properly set.

These were absolutely delicious. I refrigerated mine for about 3 hours before eating them. The only complaint I have is that the peanut butter mixture really didn't solidify like I thought it would, it was more mushy. The chocolate on top was very hard and I found it difficult to cut through it. The taste of everything was awesome though.
