Rice Krispie treats are a classic American dessert. Growing up in the U.S. this is something I often ate as a snack. My mom made them for me, and at school these would be made and sold at bake sales. No matter how many times I ate them, I never got tired of them. They are so yummy, and they are so easy to make. Perhaps the whole world knows about this recipe by now, but in case you don’t here it is. It is the recipe directly from the Kelloggs website.
One thing I must emphasize is to use quality ingredients. Generic brands of rice krispies can make the treats soggy, and margarine, can make the rice krispie treats seem too oily, and marshmallow fluff just makes them taste strange imo. Hope you enjoy these treats! :o) Recipe is below, and video on how to make them is here .
