Rolo Marshmallow Peanut Butter Brownies are the ultimate dessert with boxed brownie mix, rice krispies, candy, and marshmallows! They’re ooey, gooey, sweet, and crunchy, and the perfect sweet treat for people who love chocolate!
I love cereal treats, brownies, caramels, marshmallows, and peanut butter. The combination of all of them together may sound strange, but it is delicious! It may be one of my favorite brownies ever. Not only are they scrumptious but they are EASY.
As I still have a basket of Easter candy sitting in my pantry, I decided to use what I had. And since I was lazy, I started with a mix. My favorite brownie mix to use is Ghiradelli but you can use which ever you like.

How to Make Rolo Marshmallow Peanut Butter Brownies
Prepare a box of brownies according to the directions on the package.
Bake in a 8×8 inch pan lined with foil.
After they are cooked according to the package directions let cool for a few minutes.
Pour the marshmallow fluff in a layer over the brownies.
Put a layer of the Rolo’s over the top.
Return the pan to the oven for a few minutes until the Rolo’s melt.
Remove from the heat and set aside.
Add the peanut butter and the chocolate chips to a small sauce pan and combine and melt over low heat.
Once mixture is melted, add the Rice Krispie Cereal and mix well.
Pour the mixture over the brownies and spread to cover.
Place pan in refrigerator to cool completely before cutting.
Note: I like the chocolate layer to have more Krispie Rice cereal in it, so I added about another 1/2 cup. I also cooled mine in the freezer for about 20 minutes and then lifted the bars out of the pan by the foil and cut into pieces.
I then returned the pan to the refrigerator. I also used chocolate covered marshmallow eggs for the marshmallow layer, as I had a bag of them left, but marshmallow fluff serves the same purpose.
Tips & Variations
Switch the brownies. Use your favorite homemade brownie recipe instead of a box mix.
Swap the cereal. Try cocoa krispies, honey oat, graham cracker cereal, or your favorite.
Sub the candy. Instead of Rolos try chopped Snickers, Milky Way, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups or whatever candy you have on hand.
Storage
These brownies are best covered and stored in a cool place for up to 4 days. They can be frozen by tightly wrapping individually and stored in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
