What's the rice krispy treat recipe?

[Shugardrawers]

My box of generic rice crispies doesn't have it on there. Anyone know it off the top of your head?

I think it's one bag of marshmellows & 1/2 stick of butter melted and then add 5 cups rice crispies. Make sure that your pan is buttered really well or it will stick and that stuff is like glue.

 

[merrily]

5-6 cups of rice krispies
1/2 stick butter
1 bag of marshmallows (I think around 10 0z)

Yes, just made them last night.

3 tablespoons margarine
1-10 oz bag of marshmallows
6 cups rice krispies

I do the microwave version. Spray a 13x9 pan with cooking spray. (I also spray my wooden spoon, the bowl & the spatula--makes it easier to clean. I also spray a piece of wax paper with spray. If you don't like using cooking spray, you can use margarine)

In a microwave safe bowl, melt the margarine & marshallows for 2 minutes. Stir, return to the microwave for another minute. Stir again, then add the cereal. Put it in the 13x9 pan, use the piece of wax paper to spread. Cool & cut into squares. Enjoy.

I know they have the receipe at www.kelloggs.com

I ALWAYS add 50% more marshmallows than the recipe calls for....it makes them nice and gooey (not dry at all)

 

[JoeEpcotRocks]

Just my 2 cents -- Be sure you use fresh marshmellows!

Some people have tried using old marshmellows that have gone stale just to use them up. The results are not good. Believe me.

Me too I had another 2 cups of mini ones....the point about the stale marshmellows is true too....I tried it once...my trats were so hard they weren't anywhere close to being edible.

You guys need some more butter!

5-6 cups of rice krispies
1 whole stick of butter
1 small bag of marshmallows.

They turn out really good and marshmallowy.

Forget all that! Just melt a big bar of milk chocolate (UK made Cadbury's is my fave!), and then stir as much Rice Krispies in as you can... put it into seperate molds/cake-cups and put them in the fridge.

And then eat the the leftover with a big wooden spoon while it's still all warm and melty and gooey... Mmmm!

 

[kitn]

Ditto the butter comment. You need a whole stick.

 

[In a hurry]

1 stick butter
1 bag marshmellows
Start pouring rice krispies (or whatever...we like cheerios!) into pan until you can't stir it!

This usually makes a 15x10 pan with nice thick krispies.

 

[urglewurgle]

oh.. yum! i prefer them with chocolate rather than marshmallows...

or try this...

MARS BAR CAKES

3 Mars bars
3 oz. butter
3 oz. Rice Krispies

Melt the Mars bars and butter in a saucepan until melted. Remove from heat. Add Rice Krispies. Press mixture into a shallow dish. Chill then cut into squares.

(added extra! lol.... pour a layer of melted chocolate ontot he top before chilling... v yummy!)
