Reese's Krispies

Reese's cups are seriously the best candy ever made, and if you want to dispute that - then my husband will stand up in a heartbeat to defend it's crown. 
Obviously, Reese's cups are perfect on their own - but add them to something & you can create a whole new experience of peanut butter goodness.  Like these little candy gems, reminiscent of a a classic rice krispie treat.  Oh my word, just when I thought a Reese's cup couldn't get any better, this seductive treat comes into my life & opens up a whole new world of possibilities.  

These treats are incredibly easy & fast to prepare - fun too!  Get the kids in the kitchen & let them help with these.  They will have a blast making (and sampling!) these.
