SALTED CARAMEL-STUFFED CRISPY RICE TREATS RECIPE BY TASTY



Salted Caramel-Stuffed Crispy Rice Treats Recipe by Tasty image

Gooey, buttery crispy rice treats and salted caramel are #couplegoals. Quick tip: if the crispy rice mixture solidifies too much to spread, place the pot in the oven at 250°F (120°C) for 5 minutes to soften.

Categories     Desserts

Yield 20 treats

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons salted butter, cut into small pieces, room temperature
¼ cup heavy cream
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 stick unsalted butter
16 oz mini marshmallows
1 tablespoon McCormick® vanilla extract
8 cups puffed rice cereal
1 tablespoon flaky sea salt
candy thermometer

Steps:

  • Make the salted caramel sauce: In a small saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, stir together the sugar, water, and salt until no clumps remain, brushing any sugar granules from the sides of the pot. Turn the heat to medium and cook the sugar mixture without stirring until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C) and the color turns light amber brown, 10-15 minutes.
  • Gently whisk in 1 piece of butter at a time until melted and incorporated.
  • Remove the pot from the heat. Slowly pour in the heavy cream, whisking continuously to prevent the caramel from overflowing. Use caution as the mixture bubbles. Let the sauce cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
  • Make the crispy rice treats: Grease a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish with nonstick spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until lightly browned, 3-4 minutes.
  • With a rubber spatula, stir in the marshmallows until completely melted. Stir in the vanilla. Turn off the heat, add the puffed rice cereal, and stir until well coated.
  • Spread half of the crispy rice mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Freeze for 15 minutes.
  • Spread the salted caramel sauce evenly over the first layer of crispy rice treats and sprinkle with the flaky sea salt. Return the pan to the freezer for 10 minutes.
  • Spread the rest of the crispy rice mixture evenly over the caramel sauce. (If the crispy rice mixture solidifies too much to spread, place the pot in the oven at 250°F (120°C) for 5 minutes to soften). Let the treats cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Once cooled, invert the treats onto a cutting board and cut into 2-inch squares.
  • Enjoy!

RICE KRISPIES TREATS WITH CHOCOLATE AND PRETZELS



Rice Krispies Treats With Chocolate and Pretzels image

Marshmallow treats can skew saccharine, but this slightly more sophisticated version embraces the salty as much as it does the sugary. Sweet marshmallows and chocolate are balanced by plenty of salt: in the butter, on the pretzels and in the flaky sea salt finish. Butter-flavored pretzels ("butter snaps") have a delicate crunch and a creamy note that work well in this recipe, but any small, thin pretzels are also good. You'll want to use chopped chocolate here instead of chips: They melt faster, so you end up with smeared chocolate bits instead of distinctive chunks.

Time 15m

Yield 12 to 36 treats

Number Of Ingredients 7

Nonstick cooking spray
6 tablespoons salted butter (3/4 stick)
1 (10-ounce) bag marshmallows
3 cups Rice Krispies, or other crisp rice cereal
3 cups butter-flavored or regular mini-pretzels, broken into 1/2- to 1-inch pieces
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan with foil, leaving a 1-inch overhang on all sides, then coat with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir with a sturdy silicone spatula until smooth and melted, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, add the cereal and pretzels, and stir until evenly coated. Immediately scrape the mixture into the prepared pan. Using the spatula, press the mixture to evenly cover the bottom of the pan. Working quickly (you want the cereal mixture to still be quite warm so the chocolate will melt a bit and adhere to the the surface), sprinkle the chopped chocolate on top. Press the mixture with the chocolate into a flat, even layer in the pan. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  • Cool to room temperature in the pan on a rack. Lift out of the pan using the foil and cut into squares. Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container.
