Tips:

  • Use fresh marshmallows for the best results. Old or stale marshmallows will not melt as well and can make the treats too chewy.
  • Do not overcook the marshmallows. Overcooked marshmallows will make the treats too hard and brittle.
  • Be careful when stirring the melted marshmallows and butter mixture. The mixture can be very hot and can cause burns.
  • Add the rice cereal to the marshmallow mixture gradually, stirring constantly to avoid clumps.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan. This will help to keep the treats from crumbling.
  • Let the treats cool completely before cutting them. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the knife.
  • Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Caramel crispy treats are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking.
