Salted Chocolate Rice Krispie Bars
The traditional rice krispie bar was a staple for much of us growing up. Classic rice krispie treat recipes get a new twist when topped with a rich, decadent dark chocolate ganache, and then sprinkled with coarse sea salt. It's the rice krispie treat- all grown up!

@pgibbs 8472509, The amount of people you can serve with this recipe really depends on how you cut them. But, a 13x19 inch pan typically serves an average of 12 servings. I hope this helps! --editors of RecipeLion

I did something similar to this in collage, but I mixed in a whole bag of chocolate chips, the best I've ever made.
