Rice Krispie Treat Question

[pixiewings71]

I use less rice krispies in mine. YUM!

We used to make them in the dorm and called them "rice crispy wads" because we ate handfuls of the stuff right from pot we were mixing in.

Please share the recipe, how much Fluff to how many cups Rice Krispies?

Honestly I use the recipe off the Fluff container, I only use the Fluff brand, never felt the need to try any others.

I found this on their website:

1/4 c. margarine or butter
1 Jar (7 1/2oz) Marshmallow Fluff
5 cups crispy rice cereal

I never use margarine, I only use butter.
I only use Fluff brand--I think some grocery stores have another.
I only use Kellogg Rice Krispies, no off brands

Sometimes I get "fancy" and add in other things--chocolate chips, sprinkles, food coloring; but most of the time it is just the three ingredients.

Gee, I use generic rice krispies and generic marshmallows, the 1/2 stick of butter, cook as directed, cool, cut, put on a plate and cover with plastic wrap and they stay fine (unless someone doesn't cover them again with the plastic wrap).

They are a little fluffier with the Kelloggs Rice Krispies, but we like them either way.

Awhile back I had read that if you overheated the marshmallows, they will cool as hard as a rock..since then I have been very careful when melting the marshmallows..take off the heat before they are all completely melted and kept stirring until they are all melted..then proceed..have not had a hard batch of treats since.

DH discovered this from a chef that cooked in the restaurant in his office building. She said that you have to melt the marshmallows on LOW and very slowly. If they start to turn brown at all, they will be hard when done.

You mean they are supposed to last long enough to get crispy. Wow I learn something new everyday
