But enough chit-chat – let's get down to business.
Ingredient for Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats:
4 tablespoons butter
1 - 10-ounce bag mini marshmallows
5 1/4 cups Rice Krispies
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2/3 cup mini bittersweet chocolate morsels, divided
Time-Saving Tip: This yummy treat can be prepared a day in advance and sealed in a Ziploc bag.
Let's see what we need.
We're ready to cook!
Create a sleeve for a brownie-sized baking pan by folding aluminum foil. Spray the pan with cooking spray, place the foil inside, and give it another light spray. Ensure that the foil hangs over the sides of the pan – this overhang will allow you to easily lift the treats out of the pan once they're done.
Melt the butter, add the marshmallows and unsweetened cocoa powder, stir until creamy and smooth.
Quickly and gently fold in the Rice Krispies. Once combined, stir in half of the chocolate chips.
Gooey marshmallows wait for no one...they will quickly become stiff, so quickly transfer the mixture from the pan to the prepared pan. Press down with a spatula and sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips. I like to use a piece of parchment paper to lightly press the chips into the treats.
Try to wait for about 15 minutes and then cut up the Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats. I always start cutting from the middle and work my way out.
They're ready! These Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats are oh-so-delicious and sure to put a smile on any chocolate lover's face. I'm already counting down the moments until I can whip up another batch of these dreamy treats!
Enjoy!
