Take Your Rice Krispies Treats to the Next LEVEL
If you love to indulge in a good old fashioned Rice Krispies treat, take your batch to the next level with my personal recipe and these simple tips! They’ll onlinee out even better than the recipe on the cereal box- Promise!
1. Butter is your best friend.
Use more butter and even more marshmallows for a chewy, gooey, melt in your mouth treat.
2. Add this secret ingredient.
Add Vanilla Extract to the melted butter for fantastic flavor! It’s SO worth the extra step.
3. Use an 8×8 cake pan.
Who wants a puny thin square to bite into? Use a smaller pan for a yummy, extra-thick treat.
4. Butter your pan first.
This will prevent treats from sticking to the pan, and also don’t forget to butter your spatula or fingers before pressing them into the pan for ease and less mess.
5. Melt fresh marshmallows LOW and SLOW.
To avoid hard treats, melt marshmallows on the stove on LOW and take your time. Also, add the cereal while there are still lumps. Use soft and fresh marshmallows for best results. It will be like biting into a cloud of fluffy goodness. Yes, really.
