Rice Krispie treats are a staple in most childhood memories. This recipe gives them a grown-up makeover. The rice cereal is coated in a buttery marshmallow mix.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pkg regular marshmallows (about 10.5 oz) or -
5 c mini marshmallows
5-6 c rice krispies cereal
5 Tbsp butter
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed (can add more if desired)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
---- cooking spray (to making molding into dish easier)

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium-large pot, on low heat, melt the butter. Then add the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • 2. When the brown sugar is completely dissolved, add your marshmallows.
  • 3. Stir continuously until marshmallows are melted and the mixture is sticky. (This could create cramps in your hand, so stir slowly if need be.)
  • 4. Remove from heat and start adding the cereal. Mix until well coated. (I usually add 1 cup at a time for ease.)
  • 5. Spray your pan or chosen dish (I sometimes use fun molds) with cooking spray. Spoon your treats into the pan. (I usually spray one of my hands with the cooking spray so that I can mold the treats easier.)
  • 6. Sprinkle some more cinnamon on top (if desired) and let cool for 15-20 minutes. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve.
