Description

These rice krispie treats are soft, chewy, and perfectly gooey with just the right crunch. An easy, no-bake classic that takes less than 10 minutes to make.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 10 ounces mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter.
  3. Add the mini marshmallows and stir constantly until fully melted and smooth.
  4. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
  5. Remove from heat and quickly fold in the Rice Krispies cereal until well coated.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and gently press it evenly using a greased spatula or wax paper.
  7. Let cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Once set, cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture and meltability.
  • Do not press the mixture too hard into the pan to keep the bars soft and chewy.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips or sprinkles can be folded in before pressing into the pan.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
