Delicious Salted Caramel Rice Krispie Treats that combine the classic chewy texture of Rice Krispies with rich caramel and a hint of salt.
Ingredients
Scale
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 10 ounces marshmallows
- 5 cups Rice Krispie cereal
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 10 ounces caramels or caramel bites, unwrapped
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 5 tablespoons butter (for the caramel)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 6 ounces milk chocolate chips
- Sea salt (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Start by buttering a 9×13-inch baking dish to ensure that your treats won’t stick.
- Make the Rice Krispie Base: In a large saucepan, melt 5 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once the butter has started to melt, add the marshmallows, stirring continuously until completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Notes
- Ensure to stir continuously while melting the marshmallows to avoid burning.
- For a richer flavor, use homemade caramel instead of store-bought.
- Add more sea salt on top for an extra salted caramel taste.
