those bars from the cooking light sound a lot like some that i make all the time, i don't use Peanut Butter chips though, i use a mixture of butterscotch and semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips...they're sooooo good!

I made the bars from the cooking light site...very good kind of a combination of rice krispy bars and special k bars. Here's the recipe...

Peanut Butter-Crispy Rice Bars

This s'more-ish mixture is very sticky, so try coating your hands with cooking spray before pressing it into the pan.

1/3 cup creamy Peanut Butter
1 tablespoon butter or stick margarine
1 (10 1/2-ounce) bag miniature marshmallows
6 cups oven-toasted rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies)
Cooking spray
3/4 cup Peanut Butter chips

Combine the Peanut Butter and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at high 45 seconds or until mixture melts. Add marshmallows; microwave at high 1 1/2 minutes or until smooth, stirring every 30 seconds. Add cereal to Peanut Butter mixture; toss until well-combined. Pat cereal mixture into a 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray.

Place Peanut Butter chips in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at high 30 seconds or until chips melt. Spoon melted chips in a small heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; seal. Snip a tiny hole in 1 corner of bag; drizzle melted chips over cereal mixture. Cool slightly; cut into 24 pieces.

Yield: 2 dozen

I don't know about one on this site, but cooking light has a recipe I like that's only 118 cals per serving.

I though I found a recipe on this site for a rice crispy bar, it had Peanut Butter in it too and for 24 servings it was under 80 cal per bar. Anyone know what recipe this is?
