Browned Butter Krispy Rice Treats Recipes

BROWNED BUTTER KRISPY RICE TREATS

Steps:

• Pour the Rice Krispies into a very large wok, reserving the box and bag. (If you don't have a wok, pull out the largest pot you've got.) Place over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently and adjusting the heat as needed, until the cereal has turned slightly darker brown and tastes toasted. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Place the butter in the wok and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring and swirling the pan frequently, until the butter melts, foams, and turns light golden brown.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the marshmallows. Cook, now stirring with a rubber spatula, until melted and smooth. Stir in the salt.
• Reduce the heat all the way to low and add the Rice Krispies back to the wok. Stir gently until all of the cereal is coated with the marshmallow mixture, then remove from the heat.
• Spray the inside of the now-empty cereal bag with non-stick oil spray, then carefully pack the Rice Krispie mixture into the bag. Let cool before eating straight from the box.

THE BEST BROWN BUTTER SALTED RICE KRISPIES® TREATS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Add marshmallows to browned butter, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until marshmallows are melted, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir bourbon and 1 teaspoon sea salt into marshmallow mixture and remove saucepan from heat. Add rice cereal to marshmallow mixture and mix until cereal is evenly coated with marshmallow mixture; transfer to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Place a sheet of parchment paper over rice cereal mixture and press into dish. Remove parchment paper and sprinkle flaked sea salt over the top. Cool treats to room temperature, at least 30 minutes.

CARAMELIZED BROWN BUTTER RICE KRISPIES TREATS

Steps:

• Line rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or wax paper, or butter it well.
• In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. It will melt, then foam, then turn clear golden and finally start to turn brown and smell nutty. Watch closely and stir often.
• When butter is evenly browned, stir in marshmallows. (If using unsalted butter, stir in 1/8 teaspoon salt.) Melt and cook, stirring often, until mixture turns pale brown, then stir constantly until lightly browned but not dark, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn off heat, add cereal, and mix well, preferably with a silicone spoon or a spatula. Scrape into prepared pan and press down lightly. If necessary, butter hands to press mixture flat. Let cool, and cut into squares or bars.
