Caramel & Chocolate Rice Krispies (NEW!)

Thank you Rochelle for reminding us about these wonderful treats and thank you Heather and Meg for the photos.

Ingredients:

10 ¼ cups rice krispies
2 - 10 ounce bags of marshmallows
6 Tbsp butter
Caramel
Dipping Chocolate

Directions:

Make the rice krispies like usual. This recipe simply doubled the typical recipe minus a little of the rice krispies. Therefore, melt the butter and marshmallows over low heat until smooth. Take off heat and add the rice krispies. Pat the mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch pan. Melt the caramel in the microwave and pour over the top. It doesn't need to be too hot, but warm enough that it will spread smoothly. Smooth around so that there is about 1/8 inch of caramel over the entire pan. Let cool completely. Gradually melt the dipping chocolate in the microwave at 30 second intervals, stirring in between each interval. Cut the krispies into squares. Dip the rice krispies into the chocolate on the opposite side of the caramel then let dry chocolate side up on waxed paper.

Enjoy!

Check your local candy store for caramel that comes in a large block. Ours was a five-pound block that costs about $24. With that amount of caramel around the treat making is limitless.
