I have been following David Lebovitz, for a while now, and when he published his recipe for White Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats with Candied Peanuts I knew I had to give it a try.
Growing up my mother always had a plate of Rice Krispies squares, along with fudge, at every family reunion. She still does make them pretending that it's for the grand-children. But when she turns her back we all dig into the plate of RK squares. She still makes the basic recipe or the Chocolate Scotcheroos. Either one will disappear fast even if she has more fancy desserts on the table. There is something about Rice Krispies squares that I cannot explain. I guess it is a tradition for my mom to always have some on hand when we show up for a party.
David's made a version with White Chocolate and added Candied Peanuts. I decided, for my first batch, to make them without the Candied Peanuts. Yesterday the boys came home from school and there was nice plate of these on the table. The recipe past the test, they enjoyed everyone of them and in the next batch I will be making them with Candied Peanuts. I cannot wait to try them again. It was a brilliant idea to had White Chocolate. For Chocolate Lovers: my son adds a thick layer of Nutella to his RK squares.

Oui c'est une tradition ! Et c'est tellement bon, meme avec seulement de la guimauves. Je reviens souvent sur ton blog, je l'aime vraiment ! J'aimerais aussi discuter avec toi !
Je vais revenir quotiennement bientot ! Et je vais essayer ces carres :)
Of course, everything good becomes better with Nutella! :) Looks delicious!
Those squares look very tempting and perfect! I love Rice Krispies, so I would gobble them all in no time...
Cheers,

I saw David's post on these as well and was so impressed he liked rice krispie treats! But as usual too much food and I forgot about these. Thanks for reminding me, as I need to make a batch for my daughter this weekend.
Glad you found these, so I could find these! Amazingly delish for sure. I will have to make these for hubbys' office; I can't leave them at home, too dangerous.
Those look like a tasty twist on an old favorite. I haven't had these in years--I'll need to fix that very soon
Heaven! What a great addition to my favorite Rice Krispie treats!
What a great idea! I made plain old rice krispie treats the other day for my son's soccer team. Can't try anything new on those kids or they might snub their noses up on it. They like the same old same old. My son might like these though!
Wow, this is 100% on my list to make. White chocolate? Brilliant!
such an interesting combination. But the sweet with the salty definitely makes sense. I'll be so curious to hear how the version with candied peanuts comes out. i love the sounds of white chocolate in this classic recipe!
I saw this recipe on David's blogs too and wanted to try it! Looks delicious. In response to your comment on my blog, yea I think you could definitely use another dried fruit instead of apricots. You don't have to use apricots and dates. Or a specific kind of nuts.
these rice crispy squares look so perfect. i can almost hear them go crunch crunch ... n i'm imagining biting into them :p
These would be excellent topped with nutella too:D These would cure my chocoholic fantasies Helene:D
These look GREAT, I saw them on David's blog but haven't tried them yet!
This sounds deliciuos and I can make them with gluten free rice crispies.
YUM! I'm have actually been planning to make these later today and coincidentally, you've taste tested them for me :) I'm leaving out the peanuts as well. Yours look delicious!
Les enfants vont adorer. C'est parfait en rentrant de l'école.
You're kidding me, I'm busy making these and quickly ran to the computer to get a few comments in while the marshmallows are melting..... I like the twist on these old faithfuls!!!
Making theses today! The kids are SO EXCITED!!
Steamy Kitchen: I'll be watching your comments. The kids will love them.
