My mother made this recipe when I was young and made the topping with half chocolate chips and half butterscotch chips which was also good.

If you make this without the chocolate chips and peanut butter, does it taste similar to the non-vegan rice krispie treats?

You can make this treat a bit healthier by using sucanat or other types of less-refined vegan sugar, and by using maple syrup or brown rice syrup or a combo of both. I have tried combinations of all of the above with great success.

I love this recipie, howe'ver, I have found more success with it by NOT refrigerating it. It tends to solidify very fast and becomes VERY HARD when doing so. Howe'ver, if you discover this after the fact, popping the whole pan into the microwave (or if you cut the treats into squares beforehand, put the cut ones into the microwave) and nuke them for about a minute, they are more friendly to your teeth.

I skip the chocolate chips and up the peanut butter to 1 cup. Press the mixtured into the pan with a greased spatula, but don't over-press. Skip the refrigerator...does more harm than good. Excellent recipe!

These were very good, I didn't know what temp to cook the sugars to so I used soft ball and didn't know how much chocolate to use so I used 1 cup. They are super yummy made this way.

This was very good. Following the advice in other reviews I did not chill and I increased the peanut butter to 1 cup and reduced the chips to 1 cup. Very yummy and praise from all my vegan classmates!
