The only recipe you’ll ever need for soft, chewy and delicious rice krispie treats every single time!
Ever since I posted these rice krispie treats {12.6.2014}, they have become one of my most popular recipes that is still going strong today! I finally got around to updating the photos so I am sharing this post again so you can see these hunks of deliciousness in your face one more time.
Perfect Rice Krispie Treats – Sprinkle Some SugarI know this recipe might seem like a no brainer to some of you. Like, duh, rice krispie treats. Basic. Easy. Simple. Yeah, and you’re sorta right. But me being the rice krispie treat snob that I am, I have my own way of making them that makes them soft and delicious every single time. I’m sure most of you can agree with me that there is nothing worse than a dry as a bone krispie treat. Ya know, the kind that scrape the roof of your mouth. Wellll, my friends. Never fear those again after trying these!
The trick? Folding in more marshmallows while adding the cereal. In addition to the melty marshmallows in the first step, adding some in when you stir in the cereal creates amazing hunks of marshmallow all throughout each bar, making them even softer and chewier. The key to chewy krispie treats is lots of marshmallows. Not too much though, or the bars will fall apart and be too gooey and almost soggy. But, just enough and you’ll get the most perfect rice krispie treats that hold together and stay soft for days and days.
It is seriously SO hard to walk past this pan in the kitchen without stealing a little piece every single time. Try it, I dare ya!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Line a 9x13 pan with aluminum foil and spray well with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
(For ease, you can measure out all ingredients first before beginning.)
In a large pot, melt butter on medium-low heat. Add marshmallows and heat, stirring frequently, until almost all the way melted but not quite. Take mixture off heat and stir in cereal until coated. Add remaining 3 1/2 cups marshmallows, folding very quickly so the marshmallows don't melt.
Pour mixture into prepared pan and press down evenly. (I use the back of a rubber spatula or a piece of aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray.) Press mixture down firm enough that the bars will hold together but not too firm or they will be too solid when they come to room temperature. Allow bars to cool completely before cutting into squares.
Perfect Rice Krispie Treats will stay soft and fresh for 6-7 days or longer stored covered or in an airtight container.

I love rice krispie treats and those look amazing.
I need to make this! Got a few parties I need to attend so this will be a nice easy treat to bring! =)
I’ve never made these before. Dying to try today! (almost full term pregnant here lol) what do you mean by folding in the extra marshmellows before they melt?
Haha, well you’re going to love them!! What I mean by that is, you only stir the 3 1/2 cups of marshmallows in just enough to get them evenly distributed throughout the mixture and then remove from heat immediately because you don’t want them to melt. By doing this, it creates hunks of soft marshmallows in the rice krispie treats! Hope this helps! If you have any other questions, let me know.
How many boxes of rice dislikes is the 9 plus cups?
One large box
I consider myself a good cook and love yo bake, but have never made a decent pan of Rice Krispie treats…until now! I made these last night and they’re awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Mini or regular size marshmallows?
Mini marshmallows
How many treats does this recipe yield?
The recipe states 12-16 bars but if you cut them smaller, you could definitely have much more than that!
The recipe says “Yield 12-16 bars”
That’s correct. Depends on the size you cut them.
Recipe says “Yield: 12-16 bars”

Tone down your hauteur and your sarcasm may become mildly amusing.
Now the big news today is that the Pell case will be decided next Tuesday. All I can say is about time.The ABC is right in the middle of ‘Revelation’ and tonight is all about Pell! This is a shocker! The ABC news reports are already dripping with the snearing and the line that there was just not enough evidence to convict is ALL they have really got. The Catholics should now get ready to do their doco (and block buster film as well) to fight this cabal and their utter tripe will require focus on an inquiry to show where Andrews stands. He will be the blockage and this will take some time but democrats and Catholics have no real choice; it’s a case of first they came for the Catholics…To anyone who is worried don’t be!Despite the legal game playing and the ABC etc this is not complex.What is complex is dealing with the next stage of fighting back against the publicly funded smirkers.
