CARAMELIZED BROWN BUTTER RICE KRISPIES TREATS



Caramelized Brown Butter Rice Krispies Treats image

This absurdly easy recipe came to The Times from Colin Alevras, then the chef at the Tasting Room in New York, which, until it closed in 2008, offered Rice Krispies treats every day, and made more for Halloween. Browning the butter elevates these plebeian snacks into something more toothsome, and it adds just an extra couple of minutes to the process. They're so good. (The original recipe called for one bag of marshmallows, but after retesting, we've updated it to call for two bags. This should yield a chewier, gooier treat.)

Categories     easy, dessert

Time 15m

Yield 30 to 50 treats

Number Of Ingredients 3

8 ounces butter, salted or unsalted, preferably cultured, plus extra for pan
2 10 1/2-ounce bag marshmallows (see note)
1 12-ounce box Rice Krispies cereal

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh puffed rice cereal. Stale cereal will not hold together well and will make your bars crumbly.
  • Do not over-mix the ingredients. Over-mixing will make the bars tough.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the pan. This will help to hold the bars together.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the bars for up to 2 months.
