Why use Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®?
As the first crisped rice cereal, Kellogg’s® Rice Krispies® has been bringing families together in the kitchen for over 80 years.
To experience the timeless flavor, make your Rice Krispies Treats® squares with the original Rice Krispies® brand cereal.
1. In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
2. Add KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.

Microwave Directions: In microwave-safe bowl heat butter and marshmallows on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Follow steps 2 and 3 above. Microwave cooking times may vary.
Note:
For best results, use fresh marshmallows.
1 jar (7 oz.) marshmallow crème can be substituted for marshmallows.
Diet, reduced calorie or tub margarine is not recommended.
Store no more than two days at room temperature in airtight container. To freeze, place in layers separated by wax paper in airtight container. Freeze for up to 6 weeks. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
My son has never been one for ice cream, chocolate or candy. He has always loved Rice Kirspy Treats though. After many years of making my peanut butter version of this tasty treat, my son moved away to college. A month passed by and I often offered to bake him cookies or some other tempting treat. He finally asked me one day "You know, Mom, all I would really love to have is some of those delicious Rice Krispy Treats you used to make. Well, I made a double-batch and took them to him the next weekend. You would think he had won the lottery. When I asked him if he was going to share them with his roommates, his reply was "if they're lucky" I might offer them one. It's nice to know that after 18 years he still loves them. It started with the ones premade from the box to my own version of this time-tested recipe. Thanks for making my son's life a "little sweeter". Signed, A Grateful Mom
