These are not a take-off on Rice Krispie Treats. It is a variation of the cookies made with Kellogg's Special K cereal, and that recipe has been around for over half a century. I originally got it from my great-cook mother-in-law way back when.

I add chocolate chips to the top once it is spread into the pan. Always a crowd-pleaser. I have made these at least 50 times :) It's also easier to cut them when they are still warm!.

These are listed in a link for Gluten Free Cookies. These are NOT gluten free. Rice Krispies contain MALT which has gluten in it.

Instead of Corn Syrup, use honey, agave nectar, real maple syrup. I usually use about half honey and half maple syrup. Never ever put marshmallows in this recipe!! And I agree to cut the sugar in half, and I usually use 2 cups of peanutbutter. -- it's just easier to remember that way. 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup honey, 2 cup PB, 4 cups cereal. You could use corn flakes, rice crispies, cheerios, or your favorite plain cereal too.

This is a solid recipe but it is WAYY WAY WAY too sweet. I cut the sugar in half the second time.

These are easy and taste great. I had been looking for this recipe - used to eat it when I was a kid. Corn syrup or marshmallows - it's dessert - ENJOY ! :) I enjoy the show and would love to have the Mad Hungry cookbook on iPad.

I followed this recipe and it is fantastic! My old recipe calls for marshmallows and it isn't nearly so good. These are chewy, and delicious, not dry and crunchy.

marshmallows are as bad as corn syrup.

marshmallows would work instead of corn syrup.. and it keeps it traditional!

They look great! I am not a fan of corn syrup. What would be a good substitute?

terrific! they are super easy and delicious!

Why are my rice crispy treats hard as a rock?

High heat is the prime culprit for rock hard rice krispie treats. → Follow this tip: It will take a few more minutes of cook time, but melt the butter and marshmallows over low heat. You'll be rewarded with delicious, soft and chewy treats!

What can you use instead of marshmallows for Rice Krispie Treats?

Almond Butter – together, almond butter and maple syrup work together to create a sticky mixture that acts as a substitute for marshmallows. This way, you can make rice crispy treats without marshmallows!

How do you keep Rice Krispie Treats from falling apart?

Once you've cut up your extra rice crispy treats, stack them in an airtight container. Place a sheet of wax paper in between each layer to keep them from sticking, then seal the top. You can store the container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze the treats for up to 6 weeks. Enjoy!

Why are my Rice Krispie Treats rubbery?

Why do my rice crispy treats taste rubbery? Generally, the soggy/rubbery texture is due to adding too much butter. If you have used store-bought marshmallow fluff instead of homemade, be sure to omit the extra butter!
