Perfect Rice Krispies Treats
Rice Krispies Treats have long been a favorite dessert of mine. They are classic and delicious, which begs the question, can they really be improved upon? Yes, yes they can.
The method is very simple – additional mini marshmallows are added in at the last moment which create pockets of delicious marshmallow goodness throughout. The recipe comes from one of my favorite blogs of all time, Cookies and Cups. Enjoy
