Rice Krispie Treats

Classic gooey and crunchy dessert bars made with Rice Krispie cereal and marshmallows, perfect for sharing and snacking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 Tsp Kosher Salt
  • 2/3 Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk (5 Oz)
  • 12 Oz Mini Marshmallows
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 7 Cups Rice Krispie Cereal (7 Oz)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pan. Spray a 9×13 inch pan with butter cooking spray and optionally line with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the butter. In a large pot over medium heat, add the unsalted butter and kosher salt, stirring to melt evenly.
  3. Warm the condensed milk. Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and stir until warmed through with the melted butter.
  4. Add the marshmallows. Stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, then remove from heat.
  5. Stir in vanilla. Mix in the vanilla extract until evenly distributed.
  6. Combine with cereal. Gently fold in the Rice Krispie cereal until evenly coated.
  7. Press into the pan. Quickly pour the mixture into the prepared pan, wetting hands if necessary and pressing evenly.
  8. Cool and cut. Let cool at room temperature for about one hour before cutting into squares for serving.

Notes

Work quickly once the cereal is added to prevent the marshmallow from setting. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
