Tips
Use fresh Rice Krispies cereal. Old cereal will make your treats tough.
- Use unsalted butter. Salted butter will make your treats too salty.
- Melt the marshmallows over low heat. If you melt them over high heat, they will scorch.
- Stir the marshmallows constantly while they are melting. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Add the Rice Krispies cereal to the melted marshmallows all at once. Do not add them gradually, or your treats will be too sticky.
- Press the Rice Krispies cereal firmly into the baking dish. This will help to keep them from falling apart.
- Let the treats cool for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares. This will give them time to set.
- Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
