Are you looking for a new sweet and crunchy snack?! These chocolates peanut butter cups are IT guys! They have the best crunch to them and they are incredibly easy to make.

You only need 3 ingredients to prep these chocolate peanut butter cups and the crunch really goes a long way here. I love the salty sweet twist to them too with the peanut butter and crisp cereal. We had some leftover cereal from making rice krispie treats and wasn’t sure what to do with them (not my personal favorite bowl of cereal) so these dessert cups are IT!

I love that these are quick to make and they don’t melt easily. So you can also bring them on the go and snack on them whenever. I do keep mine in the freezer so they stay fresh longer and I just love them cold.

This is the type of recipe you want to make over and over again. And one both kids and adults love!

Tip: use your favorite chocolate chips here. A mix of dark chocolate and milk chocolate can be great. Or you can do semi-sweet or just dark chocolate.
