Breakfast cereals make a wonderful base for crunchy no-bake desserts, and melted marshmallows work perfectly as a glue. This recipe uses puffed rice cereal and whole roasted peanuts, which add extra crunch. The nutty flavor and aroma are enhanced by toasted butter. Bind the solid mass with a mixture of melted marshmallows, brown butter, and peanut butter, and let it set in the refrigerator. Before serving, drizzle with melted chocolate and cut into bite-sized squares.
