Ingredients:

  • 6 cups Crispy Rice Cereal
  • 6 tbsp Salted Butter
  • 0.5 tsp Fine Sea Salt
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 15 Pink Peeps
  • 15 Yellow Peeps
  • 15 Blue or Purple Peeps

Instructions:

  1. Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an inch of overhang on the sides. Lightly grease the parchment and a silicone spatula with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Measure out the cereal into three separate 2-cup portions to ensure quick assembly between layers.
  3. In a microwave-safe glass bowl, combine 15 pink Peeps and 2 tablespoons of butter. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until the mixture is puffy and mostly melted. Stir in 1/3 of the vanilla and salt.
  4. Fold in 2 cups of the crispy rice cereal until evenly coated. Press the pink mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan using the greased spatula.
  5. Repeat the melting and mixing process with the 15 yellow Peeps, 2 tablespoons of butter, and the second portion of cereal. Layer this directly over the pink base.
  6. Complete the final layer using the 15 blue or purple Peeps, the remaining butter, and the final 2 cups of cereal. Press firmly to create a level top.
  7. Allow the treats to rest and set at room temperature or in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before lifting from the pan and slicing into bars.
