Detailed Directions and Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Muffin Tin
Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners to prepare for the Rice Krispy cups.

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the peanut butter and chocolate chips. Heat over low to medium heat, stirring constantly until fully melted and smooth.
Step 3: Mix in Marshmallows
Add mini marshmallows to the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture. Stir until they are completely melted and combined.
