    Rice Krispy Treats are one thing that gets made in this house more than anything I know. My kids are pretty traditional and love the traditional treats, I mean don’t we all?

    It took me a long time to perfect the marshmallow to Rice Krispy ratio on these treats but we finally perfected our favorite recipe and this is how we have made it now for some time and we will never go back.

    If you are like me, you grew up on Rice Krispy Treats. I mean, they are cheap, they are easy and they are just downright tasty. There is nothing to complain about when it comes to these.

    While I loved these growing up as a kid, my mom bought hoards of Rice Krispies so we pretty much had a lot of different desserts using them.

    Some of my favorites were:

    • Ranger Cookies
    • Scotcheroos
    • Peanut Butter Balls

    Now when it comes to Rice Krispy Treats you have to have the perfect marshmallow to Krispy ratio, I mean if you don’t you either have a bar that is hard or too gooey.

    We found out a full 8 cups of marshmallow plus 6 cups of rice krispies is the perfect amount. Add in a little butter and vanilla and you are golden.

    WHAT INGREDIENTS DO YOU NEED?

    • Butter
    • Marshmallows
    • Vanilla
    • Rice Krispies

    Yup, that is it. 

    I mean if you haven’t heard of Rice Krispy Treats before, I don’t know where you’ve been. So you will have to give these a try. They are our absolute favorite thing ever.

    HOW TO MAKE RICE KRISPY TREATS:

    • Spray a 9″x13″ baking pan with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
    • Melt butter in large pan.
    • Add in 6 cups of marshmallows and heat until melted, stir in vanilla.
    • Add in remaining 2 cups of marshmallows and heat until they just puff up then remove from heat.
    • Stir in your Rice Krispies until coated.
    • Press gently into prepared pan.
    • While still warm press individual marshmallows into the top of the bars.
    • Cool until set.

    These are the bars we take a lot of the time to church and basketball games when we are hosting, bars are kinda our go to treats. They are always the first ones to go because I mean they are classic! How can you go wrong with these?
