Peanut Butter Rice Krispies Bars
"For the best flavor and texture I recommend to use fresh Kraft marshmallows and a good quality peanut butter. To freeze place in layers separated by wax paper in an airtight container and freeze up to 8 weeks, one 7-ounce jar marshmallow cream can be substituted for the mini marshmallows For peanut butter and jelly squares; layer half of the cereal mixture into the pan, spread about 1 cup you favorite flavor preserves over the bottom layer, then top with the remaining cereal mixture (grape jelly or strawberry jam works well)"
