I found this recipe on Confessions of a Cookbook Queen. I made an alteration changing the corn syrup amount and adding peanut butter.
Ingredients
- 1 box
- yellow cake mix
- 1/3 c
- butter, softened
- 1 large
- egg
- 3 c
- mini marshmallows
- 1/3 c
- light corn syrup
- 1/4 c
- butter
- 2 tsp
- vanilla flavoring
- 1/4 c
- peanut butter
- 2 c
- peanut butter chips
- 1 1/2 c
- crispy rice cereal
- 1 1/2 c
- dry roasted peanuts
How to Make Payday Bars
- 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x13 pan with foil overhanging on each end and spray it with Pam.
- 2Combine cake mix, 1/3 cup of softened butter and egg until combined. Press into the pan and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle the top with mini marshmallows and press them into the top of the bars.
- 3Combine corn syrup, 1/4 butter, vanilla, peanut butter and peanut butter chips. Stir over medium heat until the chips are melted. Take off the heat and stir in the cereal and peanuts. Spoon over marshmallows and spread as quickly as possible.
- 4Cool completely before peeling back foil and cutting into bars. You may want to cut them small because they are rich and sweet.
