Can I use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy?

You bet! Crunchy peanut butter adds extra texture that some folks love. Just know it'll make the bites slightly less smooth when you press them into the pan. My brother prefers it this way - says it gives "more to chew on!"

How long do these peanut butter Rice Krispie bites last?

In an airtight container, they'll stay fresh at room temp for about 3 days. But I usually stash half in the fridge - they firm up nicely and keep for up to a week (if they last that long in your house!).

Can I substitute something for the honey?

Maple syrup works in a pinch, but the bites will be softer. I don't recommend corn syrup - it makes them too sticky. For a vegan version, agave nectar works beautifully! You can learn more about agave nectar's nutritional profile .

Why are my bites falling apart?

Ah, the classic rookie mistake! You probably didn't press firmly enough. Really pack that mixture into the pan - I use the bottom of a measuring cup for extra pressure. Chilling longer helps too!
