A Wheat Krispies Treat Recipes

Steps:

• Measure out cereal; set aside.
• Line a 9x9 baking dish with wax paper or with greased plastic wrap. Prepare a second sheet for the top. Grease a wooden spoon.
• In a LARGE* microwavable bowl, melt butter - about 30 seconds.
• Turn the bowl in order to coat sides with melted butter.
• Add milk and vanilla; return to the microwave. Heat until marshmallows are huge and puffed-up (watch that they don't overflow) - about 2 or 3 minutes.
• With your greased spoon, stir until marshmallows are well mixed with butter, milk, and vanilla - there should be no lumps (it looks like marshmallow cream).
• Incorporate puffed wheat, making sure to coat all the cereal.
• Pour into prepared pan; cover with second piece of wax paper. Press FIRMLY into pan.
• Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• With the help of the paper, lift out and place on a cutting board or counter top; remove top layer of paper. Using a sharp, wet knife, cut into squares. If knife starts sticking, just re-wet it.
• Serve, making sure to remove any paper from the bottom.
• Keep refrigerated.
• * If you don't have a large enough microwavable bowl, you can put the puffed wheat into a regular bowl and pour the melted marshmallow over top. You will need a bowl containing at least 2 quarts to prevent marshmallows from spilling over.

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).
• Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes. Cut into 24 squares. Store the cereal treats at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add marshmallow fluff and melted butter. Stir to combine. Then add rice krispies cereal. Stir to incorporate and combine.
• Pour this mixture onto a half sheet pan covered with parchment paper and sprayed with cooking spray. Press it down into the pan evenly and let cool.
• Once cool, remove from the sheet pan and place on a cutting board. Cut into bite-sized pieces, then transfer the pieces to a cereal bowl.
• Pour milk over cereal treat bites and enjoy.
