Ok, I have to admit that we love rice krispies treats in our house! And since I just mixed it up a little with the fruity pebbles treats for kids the other day…I thought I would do mix up a basic rice krispies treat recipe as well! You must know by now, my family eats a lot of chocolate chips…they love them! So, I thought why not add the chocolate chips to the rice krispies treats and as an added bonus add some marshmallows to them as well! They came out fantastic and I now have a new easy rice krispies treat to make for my kiddos!
Chocolate Chip Rice Krispies Treats Recipe
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal
- 6 1/2 cups of Miniature Marshmallows
- 1 1/2 cups of Miniature Chocolate Chips
- In a large pot place your butter and heat over medium heat.
- Next add in your miniature marshmallows 1 cup at a time until 5 1/2 cups of marshmallows have been added.
- Stir all of your marshmallows around until they are completely melted.
- Add in your Rice Krispies cereal 1 cup at a time until all of the cereal has been added.
- Turn the heat off and continue to stir in the cereal, until the marshmallow mixture has covered all of the rice krispies.
- Now, let the rice krispies treats cool down for about 30 minutes.
- Then fold in your mini chocolate chips by hand.
- Now do the same with your marshmallows, leaving a couple extra ones to place on top.
- In a greased 13x9 pan, empty your rice krispies mixture into it.
- Spread the chocolate chip rice krispies treats evenly inside the pan.
- Let the treats cool for about 3 hours and then...ENJOY!! 🙂
