Marshmallow Rice Krispie Treats Recipe

Fantastic Recipe! I added my own twist to it, of course ;) I followed the measurements for butter, marshmallows, and rice cereal but included a dash of milk, a splash of vanilla, a generous scoop of peanut butter, and topped it all off with some peanut butter M&M's - absolutely spectacular! Using the microwave method was a game changer. I recommend using a smaller pan or doubling the batch like other reviewers suggested. Enjoy getting creative with this timeless recipe!

Who can resist these treats? Even popular coffee chains feature them in their bakeries, although they tend to overprice them. I adjust the ingredients slightly (1/4 cup of butter, 50 regular marshmallows or 5 cups of miniature marshmallows, 6 cups of Rice Krispies), but the outcome remains consistently delicious - chewy and gooey! I prefer a thicker version, so I prepare them in a buttered 9x9" pan. To take it up a notch, I often melt an 11 oz. bag of milk chocolate chips and layer it on top. Absolutely divine!

These bars are fantastic!! I got a bit carried away with mixing in ingredients, haha. I tossed in some leftover chocolate chips from another recipe, a couple of broken Hershey bars, and a generous spoonful of peanut butter. Delish! I skipped buttering the pan and instead used cooking spray. A handy trick is to spray your hands with cooking spray to press the mixture into the pan without it sticking to you!

I slowly melted 1/4 cup of butter and then added a 10.5 oz. bag of mini marshmallows. Once melted, I poured in a splash of milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. I mixed in 6 cups of Rice Krispies as 5 cups seemed too gooey. I pressed the mixture into a buttered 9x9 pan using a buttered ziplock bag. The end result was thick and delicious treats!

As someone with celiac disease, I couldn't enjoy the usual cereal, but I was thrilled to discover that I could use rice Chex cereal instead. I simply crushed the squares slightly with a rolling pin in a zip lock bag, followed the recipe, and added a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter. The result was a big hit! Everyone in the family loved them, bringing joy and satisfaction all around.

Amazing recipe! Quick, simple, and absolutely tasty. We decided to jazz it up for a fun 4th of July twist by adding food coloring to the rice cereal. It was a huge hit with both the kids and adults at our party! If you don't have miniature marshmallows on hand, you can easily substitute with large marshmallows. I used a mix of both sizes from leftover bags and it worked wonderfully. Pro tip: cut the larger marshmallows into smaller chunks to help them melt faster and more evenly.

Followed all the basic instructions and, at the end of melting the marshmallows, I decided to incorporate the 1 cup of creamy peanut butter as recommended by another reviewer. I mixed it in as I added just 5 cups of Rice Krispies, along with a cup of miniature M&Ms. I pressed the mixture into a 9x13 pan that I had treated with cooking spray, and the thickness turned out perfect. As a finishing touch, I sprinkled more M&Ms on top before pressing, but I regretted this as the candies ended up falling off. Despite that, the treats were gooey enough, delicious, and a hit with the crowd. The peanut butter added a nice background flavor without being overwhelming.

I have become a pro at making marshmallow treats, and even my kids agree that they taste just like the ones at Noodles and Company! To elevate the flavor, I like to add a splash of milk to the melted marshmallows before mixing in the cereal. Additionally, I melt an extra cup of marshmallows after spreading the mixture in the pan, then pour it over the treats for an extra gooey finish. Thanks for the inspiration to take my marshmallow treats to the next level!

As a kid, I loved making these treats with my grandmother. Her special touch was adding a hint of vanilla and a spoonful of sweetened condensed milk to the mix of marshmallows and butter while cooking. Pure perfection! 😊👌🏼🍫🥄

This recipe was incredibly easy to prepare! We gently heated it on low for approximately 15 minutes, then sprinkled toppings on it after mixing and removing it from the stove. We used a parchment paper-lined 9x9 pan to create thicker pieces, which we later sliced into 12 chunky portions. It was a breeze to remove the pieces without any mess thanks to the parchment paper. The end result was absolutely delicious!

I absolutely loved this recipe! I opted for regular rice crispies instead of the colored ones and added red food coloring to the melting marshmallows. I spread the mixture a bit thinner on the pan than recommended and once it was dry, I cut them into heart shapes. Then, I sandwiched two hearts together with peanut butter in the middle to create a cute "marshmallow sandwich". They turned out adorable and delicious, perfect for Valentine's Day with their pink color!

I enjoyed it but it would be even better with more marshmallow.

No changes this time, but I have created marshmallow squares with butter on top of various cereals like corn flakes, fruit loops, vector, lucky charms, and more. Kids enjoy all of them.

It's a breeze to speed up the cooling process by popping it in the freezer for 2-3 minutes. If you're using a smaller pan, opt for a thicker cake pan for even spreading.

I checked out other recipes and they seemed a bit complicated, but I appreciate how your recipe is simple, easy, fun, and effective. Thank you!

Brief and to the point

Absolutely adore this recipe! It's incredibly easy to put together and the flavor is outstanding. I highly suggest throwing in some extra butter and marshmallows for an even gooier and tastier result - but even if you skip the extras, it still comes out fantastic. Without a doubt, this has become a top favorite for me!

I really enjoyed them.

Absolutely delicious! I didn't have mini marshmallows on hand, so I substituted with jumbo ones and it turned out great. I opted for unsweetened all-natural puffed rice, which was ideal for my taste as I prefer less sweetness. The result was a delightful combination of sweet, crunchy, and savory flavors. I give it a perfect score of 10 out of 10!

My family absolutely adores this recipe. It's so simple to prepare, and I'm certain there are easy variations you can incorporate to make it uniquely yours. Personally, I enjoy it just the way it is.
