Delicious Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispie Treats
These Rice Krispie treats are made with marshmallows and crispy rice cereal, then dipped in melted chocolate for an indulgent finish. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and yields approximately 12 treats.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 package (10 oz) mini marshmallows
- 6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
- 2 cups chocolate chips (milk or dark)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (optional for thinning chocolate)
- Sprinkles or toppings (optional)
Instructions
- Melt Butter: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- Mix in Cereal: Remove from heat and add the Rice Krispie cereal, stirring until well coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Press into Pan: Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13 inch pan. Press down firmly with a spatula or wax paper to create an even layer. Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes.
- Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and vegetable oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and melted.
- Dip Treats: Once the Rice Krispie treats have cooled, cut them into squares or rectangles. Dip the bottom half of each treat into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.
- Set and Decorate: Place the dipped treats on a parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle with toppings before the chocolate sets. Let the chocolate harden at room temperature or refrigerate for quicker setting.
- Serve: Enjoy your delicious Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispie Treats as a sweet dessert or snack!
