How to Make Rice Crispy Treats So Addictive!

Who doesn’t love Rice Crispy treats?  These gooey squares of sticky sweetness are sure to elicit cries of joy at any kiddy’s birthday party – and they go down great at home with a glass of ice-cold milk.  Once you’ve tasted our recipe, you’ll be sure to hide them so you don’t have to share!

You will need:

 

Half a stick of butter

A bag of large marshmallows (40 large marshmallows)

6 cups Rice Crispies cereal

Large saucepan

Spatula or plastic rice paddle

Large square Tupperware container


Steps:

 
Set the saucepan on low heat and melt the butter slowly.  Don’t boil or burn it, or the treats won’t taste good.

 

Next, pour in your marshmallows and allow them to melt.  Keep the heat on low and use your rice paddle to keep the mixture moving around so it doesn’t burn.  Constantly scoop it away from the sides and put it back in the middle as it spreads outwards – this will prevent it from sticking to the sides. 

 

When everything is heated and mixed, you will be left with a large puddle of white marshmallow goo.  Do not allow children to taste this straight from the pan, it is extremely hot and the superheated sugar can cause burns!

 

Turn off the heat and stir in your rice crispies.  Use the rice paddle to stir everything together gently.  Do not stir too hard or you’ll crush the crispies.

 

When everything is blended together, scrape the mixture gently into the largest Tupperware container you have, so that it is about one or two inches deep.  Smooth the mixture to the sides and flatten the top so that it makes uniform treats.  If you find the mixture sticks, you can use the remainder of your butter stick to wax the sides of the Tupperware.

 

Set your treats aside to cool.  It’s best if eaten one to five hours after cooking.  It tastes best when still warm, combines with a drink of cold milk.  The mixture can be stored overnight in the fridge, but be sure to put the Tupperware lid on to prevent staleness.
