No Bake Reeses Puffs Treats

My kids have been more involved in the kitchen lately, and my 8 year old asked to take our Lucky Charms Treats recipe and Cheerio Treats recipe and change it up to work with Reeses Puffs cereal.

If you love the flavor of Reeses peanut butter cups, and you haven’t tried Reeses Puffs cereal, you’re missing out!

These treats are so delicious and indulgent – we’re even including chopped up Reeses peanut butter cups in the treats for even more chocolate and peanut butter flavor!

These delicious desserts are sure to be a hit in your home – we hope you love them as much as we do!

As a service to our loyal readers, we add a lot to these posts to help you get great results, every time.

To Make This Recipe You’ll Need

If you make Rice Krispy Treats at home, you probably have everything you’ll need to make this recipe on hand already.

We strongly suggest using parchment paper to line your baking dish with to prevent sticking – it makes for easy cleanup.

We also strongly suggest using a nonstick silicone stirring spoon, since it is the easiest to clean marshmallow and butter from.

As far as a baking dish, we use a 9×13 casserole dish to form our Reese’s Puffs Treats – but you can use whatever size casserole, pie plate, or deep-dish cookie pan you have on hand. These treats are no bake, so the dish is just to form the treats – make whatever size works for you!

Tips to Perfect Reeses Treats

Just like Lucky Charms Treats and Cheerio Treats, these bars are super simple to prepare – but there are a couple tips and tricks to get them to turn out perfectly, every time.

Let chill

These bars are best when they have set – be sure to let chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to let the marshmallows and butter set, or the bars can get runny and soft.

We recommend chilling before cutting bars for best results.

Don’t overmix

Marshmallow cream can get stiff when overworked. Mix the bars well, but don’t overmix.
