First, we need to melt up the marshmallows to serve as our “glue” for the cereal. But if you just try to melt marshmallows on the stove or microwave on their own, they will be wayyyy to stiky to handle. So we also add melted butter to make the mixture more manageable.

Next, you add the melted marshmallow to the cereal and move quickly to combine them together with the Reese’s Pieces. As time passes, the marshmallow will cool and become stiff and hard to mix so it’s important to move fast.

The final sets are up to you. If you don’t mind a gooey bar, then go ahead and slice and eat the cereal bars without letting them set. I tend to fall into this category when I’m desperately trying to satisfy my sweet tooth.

But if you want the bars to look neat, with perfect edges, you must let them sit and set until the marshmallow has cooled enough to make the bars solid.

Each box is 4 oz, so if you need ¾ cup, or 6 oz, you need a box and a half, but honestly 2 boxes would work just fine, you would just have a good amount of peanut butter in the blondie.

I don’t think I specified whether you should use crunchy or creamy peanut butter. I would personally use creamy to get that creamy and chewy blondie texture. If crunchy is all that you have on hand it would work too. It would just be a little bit of a strange texture.
