ingredients
directions
In large saucepan, bring marshmallows, corn syrup, peanut butter, brown sugar and salt to boil over medium heat, stirring until smooth, about 5 minutes.
Add cereal and ¾ cup (175 mL) of the peanuts, stirring just until coated. Scrape into greased or parchment paper-lined 13- x 9-inch (3 L) metal cake pan. Press firmly until smooth and evenly distributed.
Sprinkle evenly with chocolate chips; heat in preheated 350°F (180°C) oven just to warm chocolate enough to spread, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from oven; using off-set metal spatula or small knife, spread chocolate evenly overtop; sprinkle with remaining peanuts.
Let cool. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes. Cut into squares (wrap and store in cool dry place for up to 5 days).
