If you’re trying to remember a recipe from years ago, a very similar dessert from the 70s was known as Rice Krispies’ Wonder Fudge — “A fast, no-fail fudge with crunchy bits.”
PS: For an extra-chocolaty flavor, sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top right after you spread the cereal mixture in the pan.
The original: Fudge Krispies, with homemade goodness in every bite (1984)
