Buncha Crunch Rice Crispy Treats

When we visited the WWOHP last, the Hubs picked up a treat for me from HoneyDukes as we were leaving. It was an extremely large {it took me several days to eat it} rice crispy treat with a thick layer of chocolate on top. It was definitely delicious, but oh so rich. I could only handle a little at a time.

Since then, I have been thinking a lot about that treat. So when the Hubs asked me to recreate it last week, I was totally into it, but I also wanted to put the ole BNP spin on it.

Whenever we go to the movies lately I almost always buy either a popcorn and M&M’s or my go-to, Buncha Crunch. And we have been seeing a lot of movies lately, which means Buncha Crunch is on my brain, in my mouth, and around the house. So I thought, why not combine my love for Buncha Crunch with my long lost treat from the WWOHP.

So not only did I put my beloved Buncha Crunch in the everyday, average rice crispy treat, but I also put them on top…Oh yeah, and I drizzled chocolate and peanut butter on top of that. Because.

Buncha Cruncha Treats

Recipe by Carrie

Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter
1 package {10 oz.} marshmallows
6 cups rice crispy cereal
1 cup Buncha Crunch candy, plus more for topping
chocolate drizzle
peanut butter drizzle

Instructions

Line a 9x13 inch pan with parchment or grease thoroughly with baking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large saucepan, melt your butter on medium heat.
Add your marshmallows and stir until they are completely melted.
Add your rice crispy cereal, 2 cups at a time, and mix well.
Take your rice crispy mix off of the heat, and stir in your Buncha Crunch. Keep in mind that the longer you stir, the more they will melt. I mixed it as quickly as possible before pouring it in the pan.
Pour your rice crispy mix into prepared pan and using a spatula, press firmly until it is level.
Top with additional Buncha Crunch, and let cool.
To make the chocolate and/or peanut butter drizzle, you will need Candy Melts. You can pick them up at any craft store.
Melt the candy according to the package directions.
Using a disposable piping bag or ziploc bag, pour melts into the bag and snip the end.
Drizzle the rice crispy treats with the chocolate/peanut butter both vertically and horizontally.
