These brownies are seriously loaded! You will need to have a glass of milk close by when you eat them- they are so rich . . . and SO GOOD! The layers of creamy frosting mixed with peanuts and rich chocolate and peanut butter mixed with rice krispy cereal make these brownies stand out from just your regular ol’ brownies. They were a huge hit with my family- I hope that yours likes them too!
