Rice Crispy Treats are a classic but that doesn't mean we can't try to make them better. The original recipe, while genius, is a little dull. To shake things up I've thrown in a little Nutella to impart chocolaty, nutty undertones.
I'm just scratching the surface here, the possibilities are endless. Crispy treats don't have to be kid friendly either, these may not appeal to children but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying.
Hazelnut Crispy Treats
7 c . gluten-free brown rice cereal
2 T. unsalted butter
4 c. mini marshmallows (Kraft Jet Puffed, Campfire)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c. Nutella
Melt butter over medium heat in a medium pot. Add the marshmallows to the butter, stirring until marshmallows have melted. Remove the pot from heat, stir in vanilla and salt. Then add Nutella and stir. Do all of this fairly quickly because the marshmallow will begin stiffen up. It is not necessary to completely blend the Nutella and marshmallows. Now add the rice cereal and stir to evenly coat the crispies. Next, flop the mixture into a 7 1/2" x 10" pan, sprayed with cooking spray. Using wax paper, press the crispies into the pan, evenly. Allow to cool, then cut into squares. Store uneaten treats in an airtight container. The sooner you eat them, the better. Eat all of them in one day.
