Chocolate Peanut Butter Cereal Bars

I wanted to make some version of rice krispy treats today, just because.  This recipe includes graham cereal, chocolate chips, and peanut butter for some extra flavor and a twist on the traditional rice krispy bars.  This recipe is VERY quick and easy...and of course, tasty.  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
3/4 Cup Chunky Peanut Butter
1 (10.5 oz) Bag of Mini Marshmallows
2 Tbsp. Milk

3 Cups Rice Krispies Cereal
3 Cups Graham Cereal (Golden Grahams)  
3/4 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips (divided into 1/2 Cup and 1/4 Cup)


Directions:
1.  Coat a 13x9 dish with cooking spray.
2.  In large saucepan or stockpot, heat together the peanut butter, marshmallows, and milk over medium-low heat.  Stir occasionally until smooth.  Remove from heat.
3. Pour in cereal and 1/2 cup of the mini chocolate chips.  Stir well to coat.  Press mixture into the greased dish (use a lightly buttered spatula to make it easier if you want--less sticky).
4.  Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips over the top.  Cool about 30 minutes.  Cut into bars and enjoy!
