  4. Mix in Rice Krispies: Remove from heat and stir in 6 cups of Rice Krispies and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for about 2 minutes.
  5. Layer the Mixture: Press half into the prepared pan, layer with Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, then spread the remaining mixture over and press down gently.
  6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle chopped Reese's Peanut Butter Cups over the top and press down lightly to stick.
