Just melt a handful of marshmallows—Nicole uses three—in a microwavable bowl, then add some Rice Krispies cereal. Nicole doesn’t provide amounts, but you can use your own discretion to decide whether you want more crunch or more ooey-gooey goodness with your treat. Finish your after-dinner pick-me-up by stirring it all together and voila! You’ve got an instant dessert everyone in the house will love.
How to Upgrade Instant Rice Krispies Treats
Now that you know how to make your own, you should know how to make it better. You can soften (and sweeten) this recipe by adding a little bit of butter, vanilla and the baking chips of your choice. Opt for Baileys Irish Cream chips or Funfetti baking morsels—you can get as creative as you like with this recipe!
