Mix- ins or Toppings for Chocolate Krispie Bars

  • Peanut Butter or Cookie Butter: Swirl in a 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter or speculoos cookie butter into the melted marshmallows for an instant flavor upgrade.
  • Candy Pieces: Chop up mini peanut butter cups, M&Ms, Snickers, toffee bits, or Andes mints.
  • Extra Marshmallows: Toss in an extra 1 to 2 cups of mini marshmallows or dehydrated marshmallow bits right at the end so they stay partially whole and gooey.
  • Crushed Pretzels or Potato Chips: Introduce a salty crunch to balance out the intense sweetness.
  • S'mores Elements: Toss in crushed graham cracker pieces and mini chocolate chips to lean into campfire flavors.
  • Shredded Coconut: Mix in unsweetened shredded coconut to create an Almond Joy or Mounds-style profile.late Krispie cereal

Rice Krispie Treat Lovers We Got You Covered


So you may just love the plain, simple treats with just marshmallows and rice cereal, right?

Just switch back to plain white Rice Krispies, and you can just omit the drizzle for the originals.

The only difference is that we like them softer and not as hard as a rock, so we adapted the recipe with more butter to make that happen.

Chocolate Rice Krispy Treats with Nutella Drizzle

Chocolate Rice Krispy Treats with Nutella Drizzle

Chocolate Rice Krispie treats with a Nutella drizzle on top. For serious Rice Krispie treats and Nutella lovers!
Prep time: 5 MinCook time: 5 MinTotal time: 10 Min

Ingredients

  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
  • 1- 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups chocolate rice krispie cereal or use regular if you want to make the original style
  • Nutella

Instructions

  1. I use a heavy-duty saucepan, melt the butter on low, I NEVER use margarine.
  2. Note: We prefer to use chocolate Krispy cereal so I use that kind instead of the white version however either is fine.
  3. Melt the butter, and add the marshmallows, stirring constantly until just melted, do not scorch or overcook, or your squares will be hard as a rock.
  4. Add the cereal, blending quickly.
  5. Pour into parchment lined pan. I prefer using a 10 x 10 square small pan to make them thicker.
  6. Tips: use only fresh marshmallows and chocolate Krispie cereal for the best results.
  7. When pouring the hot mixture into a parchment-lined pan ( square baking pan) I like to pat it down with a spatula and to make them evenly pressed together.
  8. Cool before cutting.
  9. The last thing I do is drizzle some Nutella on top before serving using a fork.
