Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter

Recipe Tips

To prevent the rice crispy treats from sticking to the baking dish, you can line it with parchment paper before pressing in the mixture. If you prefer a chewier texture, use fewer crispy rice cereal cups. For a crunchier texture, use more crispy rice cereal cups. Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Enjoy!
