"Healthy" Squares

Brown Rice Syrup Peanut Butter Crispy

I stumbled upon this "healthy" version of Rice Krispy Treats a few months ago. I finally got around to making it. It takes brown rice syrup, peanut butter, puffed rice cereal and a dash of vanilla extract. I managed to throw this together in roughly five minutes and I'm pretty pleased with the results. Oh, I guess I threw in mini chocolate chips for good measure (texture, varying flavor). They're tasty and easy to make. And peanut buttery. They don't stick together as well as normally Rice Krispy Treats, but that's because there's no sticky marshmallow. I guess there's also no yummy marshmallow flavor. ]:

I want marshmallow krispy treats now. ]:
