Gooey marshmallows and crispy rice cereal come together in this recipe for the all-original favorite. We added a splash of vanilla extract and pinch of salt to give these sweet treats a palatable punch. Cut into squares, store between a few pieces of wax paper (to prevent any sticking) and enjoy for up to three days.

Time 45m

Yield Makes 24 cereal treats

Number Of Ingredients 7

Nonstick cooking spray
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
One 10-ounce bag mini marshmallows
6 cups crispy rice cereal, such as Rice Krispies
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch kosher salt
Decorative toppings, optional (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on each of the longer sides. Spray the foil lightly with cooking spray.
  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt.
  • Working quickly, add the rice cereal to the pot and stir with a rubber spatula until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and press into an even, compact layer. (Spray your hands with a little cooking spray to keep them from sticking when pressing the cereal mixture into the pan). Decorate with toppings if using (see Cook's Note).

No Bake Rice Krispies Cookies With Dates image

My grandmother taught me how to make these - hated them when I was a kid (because they had dates) but now as an adult I love them!

Provided by Chicken Finger

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 20m

Yield 32 cookies, 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 lb finely cut up pitted dates
2 beaten eggs
4 cups Rice Krispies
crushed walnuts or coconut

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a saucepan and add sugar and dates; stir over low heat until gummy.
  • Add 2 beaten eggs and cook for 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat and stir in 4 cups rice krispies.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Roll into balls with crushed walnuts or coconut.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, soft dates: This will ensure that your bars are chewy and flavorful. If your dates are dry, you can soak them in hot water for a few minutes to soften them up.
  • Pack the mixture firmly into the pan: This will help to keep the bars from falling apart when you cut them.
  • Chill the bars for at least 30 minutes before cutting them: This will make them easier to cut and will help to prevent them from crumbling.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks: You can also freeze the bars for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Date Rice Krispies bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover dates, and they are also a healthy and nutritious snack. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of these bars in no time. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these Date Rice Krispies bars a try!
