Description

A layer of creamy caramel in the classic Rice Krispies treats. Gooey and good! Try this with Fruity Pebbles—you will be pleasantly surprised.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE BOTTOM LAYER:
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter
  • 6 cups Mini Marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
  • FOR THE MIDDLE LAYER:
  • 14 ounces, weight Bag Of Caramels, Unwrapped, About 50
  • 1 can Sweetened, Condensed Milk - 14-ounce Can
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • FOR THE TOP LAYER:
  • 4 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
  • 4 cups Mini Marshmallows
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter

Preparation

Butter a 9×13-inch pan. Set aside.

For the bottom layer:
Melt butter and marshmallows in a large saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in rice cereal. Press lightly into the prepared pan, but don’t pack it down.

For the middle layer:
Combine caramels, sweetened condensed milk and butter in a microwave safe bowl. Put them into the microwave and heat on low power for 30 seconds at a time until fully melted and smooth. Make sure to stir between each 30 second heat burst. Pour the melted caramel evenly over the bottom cereal layer.

For the top layer:
Melt butter and marshmallows in a large saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in rice cereal. Drop blobs evenly over the caramel layer. Do not press it down.

Cool to set.

**Note: The caramel layer will want to ooze in warmer temperatures, so these may need to be stored in the refrigerator.

**To make half the recipe one can sweetened condensed milk is about 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. Use equal parts rice cereal to marshmallows for top and bottom layers. You really can’t screw it up!
