Tips for Making the Perfect Rice Krispies
Here are tips to enhance and perfect your rice Krispie treats! These will help create the perfect treat every time!
- Rice Krispies are Too Dry: If your rice krispies come out too try, this means that you have used too much cereal.
- Rice Krispies are Too Sticky: This likely means that you have used too many marshmallows.
- Brown Butter: Adding brown butter to your rice krispies gives them a delicious nutty flavor! See full recipe here.
- Toppings: To spice up your rice krispies, you can top them with things like oreo pieces, chopped candy, chocolate, caramel, and nuts. Mix and match to create things like turtle and butterscotch peanut butter treats!
- In the Microwave: You can use the microwave to melt down your butter and marshmallows. Add butter and marshmallows to a microwave-safe bowl and cook on high for 1 minute. Cook for additional 10-15 second intervals until the mixture is melted and smooth.
- Overcooking Marshmallows: Be sure not to overcook your marshmallows. This will make your rice krispies too hard.
What to Serve With Your Perfect Rice Krispies
Rice Krispies treats are the easiest dessert to make for an event with lots of guests. I like to serve up rice Krispie treats alongside other simple crowd-pleasers like muddy buddies and no-bake desserts for a food table your guests will keep coming back to. These recipes pack rich, delicious flavor but are super quick, easy, and inexpensive to put together!
Storing Perfect Rice Krispies
Rice Krispie treats are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For that just-made freshness, pop your rice krispies into the microwave for 10 seconds before eating. I’ve found that refrigerating or freezing your rice Krispie treats makes them too hard.
