Rice Krispie Bars -

I know you can just buy Rice Krispie Bars in a box at the store but it’s just not even close to same as making them from scratch. That being said not all homemade Rice Krispie Bars are the same, you definitely have to use real butter and I prefer a few more marshmallows than the original recipe calls for. There are so many variations and different ways to make these sweet treats but to me this is the best recipe. With just 3 ingredients this is such a simple recipe but it’s still one of my all time favorites, sometimes simple is better.

How to make Rice Krispie Bars

Grease the a 9×13 pan with soft butter, I always use real butter because it adds to the flavor of the bars. Next, measure out 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal and pour into a large bowl.

Then melt the butter in a large sauce pan over medium heat.

Add marshmallows and stir constantly until completely melted.

Remove the pan from heat, add the rice krispies cereal, and stir until well coated.

Pour the mixture into the buttered 9×13 pan. Gently spread it out in the pan, I like to coat my hands in a little butter when I do this but you can use a rubber spatula too.

Let cool for an hour and then cut into squares.

Serve and enjoy!
