  • 2/3 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups puffed rice cereal

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13×9-inch baking pan.

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the puffed rice cereal and salted peanuts until evenly coated.

  7. Assemble the Cake:
