What are Rice Krispies?
Rice Krispies Squares, a timeless and delectable treat, emerged as a culinary creation from the iconic Rice Krispies cereal introduced by Kellogg's in 1928. The inception of this delightful square can be traced back to the mid-20th century, and it quickly became a staple in kitchens around the world. These squares are crafted by combining the crispiness of Rice Krispies with a gooey blend of marshmallows and butter, resulting in a chewy and sweet confection.
Typically enjoyed as a snack or dessert, Rice Krispies Squares have become synonymous with comfort and simplicity. Whether relished as an indulgent treat during afternoon tea or a delightful addition to children's lunchboxes, these squares encapsulate the essence of timeless enjoyment, embodying a perfect blend of nostalgia and sweetness.

Ingredient Substitutions
- Mini Marshmallows: Regular marshmallows can be used in place of mini marshmallows; just cut them into smaller pieces to help them melt more evenly and quickly.
- Rice Krispies Cereal: Crisped rice cereal is a similar option that provides the same texture and crunch, and can often be found as a store brand alternative.
TIPS & TRICKS
- Lightly grease the sheet pan and your spatula with butter or non-stick spray to prevent the Rice Krispies mixture from sticking, making it easier to spread and cut.
- Letting the mixture cool for about 10-15 minutes after spreading it on the sheet pan makes it easier to cut into squares without falling apart.
