Instructions
- How to make Small Batch Rice Krispie Treats
- Line a 6x6 baking pan with parchment paper cut into a 6x10 inch strip, then spray lightly with non-stick spray. Alternatively, you can grease or butter the entire pan.
- Slowly melt the butter in a large skillet on low heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the vanilla and marshmallows. Melt the marshmallows slowly but not fully melted. You want it slightly lumpy.
- Add the milk and stir to combine. Turn off the heat.
- Add the Rice Krispies Cereal. Stir until the cereal is fully coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Dump into the prepared baking pan. Use a greased spatula to spread out the treats and press down just a little bit. Do not compact them or they become rock-hard.
- Allow to fully chill in the fridge, for about 30 minutes.
- Then cut into 4 – 6 pieces.
Notes
- Crispy rice treats do freeze well. Wrap the treats in wax paper and place them inside an airtight container. Place the treats in the freezer for up to 6 weeks. Let them thaw at room temperature for about an hour before serving.
