Chocolate Drizzle Rice Krispie Treats tips…

Follow the tips below for the perfect Halloween Rice Krispie Treats each and every time!

  • Pat down softly! Once you transfer the Rice Krispie mixture to the baking dish pat down very softly with your fingers. If you press down firmly the treats will become more compact, making them less oeey-gooey and harder to eat.
  • Wet your fingers! Wetting your fingers before patting down the treats will make the process much easier. It helps to prevent sticking.
  • Do not refrigerate! When you are letting the Rice Krispie Treats set do not refrigerate. Simply keep at room temperature.
  • Let sit before cutting! I know its hard to wait that hour before cutting into these delicious treats, but I highly recommend you do. This makes both cutting into and enjoying them easier.
  • Work quickly! Now you don’t have to rush when making these treats, but you should move a little quickly. Once melted the marshmallows due tend to harden up so make sure to mix in the Rice Krispie Cereal right away.
