Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispies Treats

This recipe for Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Squares takes an old time favorite to a whole new level. Rice Krispie squares with peanut butter, a gooey caramel layer, then topped with chocolate!
My inspiration for this recipe came from a recipe from Hugs & Cookies blog who makes a ton of crazy delicious sweets. I made Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Squares in a 9×9 pan but simply double the recipe for a 9×13 pan. They will fly off the plate fast!
As a kid there were two homemade treats my brothers and sisters and I loved – Rice Krispie Squares and Puffed Wheat Squares! Both are easy to prepare, don’t cost a lot to make, and kids devour them!
My family may never eat plain Rice Krispie Squares again, these are incredible!
