Peanut Butter Cup Rice Crisp Treats (Kelcey Carlson)

I really love the twist on this traditional treat with the peanut butter and chocolate chips.  Most of the organic products were found at Trader Joe’s.  The peanut butter was produced in North Carolina! This recipe is quick, easy and great for kids.
