Rice krispie treats

If you're making them for adults, Smitten Kitchen has a recipe for browned butter rice Krispy treats--uses more butter and a good amount of salt. So good!

If they are for young kids, stick to the recipe on the box and throw in some Halloween color sprinkles.

Yum! What a great idea. How much Nutella do you use?

You can buy the ready made at Costco.

I agree with sticking to the basics. Dried fruit? Just wrong.

For chocolate-topped, just melt semi-sweet chips and then drizzle or pour on top.

OP: In my opinion they should be consumed hours after making. That way they are gooey and delicious. Don't go fancy. Just make the basic version-they will disappear in minutes.

I use about a cup of nutella and add it after the marshmallows melt.

I made these last week, they are divine. I like that they don't mess with the essential purity of the rice krispy treat, they just amp the flavors up a bit with the browned butter- sooo good.

Dried fruit in a rice Krispy treat!?


Blech!

The trick is that you slowly melt the butter and marshmallow. The heat should be at the lowest setting when melting the butter and marshmallow. Then add the rice krispies when it is slightly cooled down.

Sometime I'll add 1/2 c peanut butter to the mix, then a choc/PB frosting on top.
