Brown Butter Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
Description
Brown Butter Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats start with browning butter until it foams and smells nutty before melting in a full bag of marshmallows. Biscoff cookie butter, vanilla, and sea salt are then stirred in to infuse the marshmallow mixture. Crispy rice cereal and chopped Biscoff cookies are folded in carefully to preserve texture, followed by more marshmallows to enhance chewiness. The mixture is pressed firmly into a greased pan and optionally topped with flaky sea salt for contrast.
The treats have a firm but tender bite with a unique flavor profile contributed by the Biscoff spread and cookies. Baking pan size adjusts treat thickness, with a smaller pan producing thicker bars.
These treats can be enjoyed as a sweet snack or dessert. Their combination of gooey marshmallows, browned butter depth, and Biscoff spice makes them stand out from the classic Rice Krispie treat. They hold well at room temperature for a few days.
Storing them covered or in an airtight container prevents drying out. Using parchment paper facilitates releasing the treats from the pan. Gently pressing the mixture without over-compressing preserves texture.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter cut into tablespoon pieces
- 16 ounce mini marshmallows divided, bag plus 2 cups
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1/2 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 8 cups crispy rice cereal
- 2 cups biscoff cookie chopped
- sea salt optional, flaky, for sprinkling on top
Instructions
- For super thick Rice Krispie Treats, grease an 9x9-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. For regular Rice Krispie Treats, grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. You can also line the pan with parchment paper to make it easier for them to come out of the pan. Set pan aside.
- Place the butter in a large pot and melt over medium heat, stirring often, until it foams, smells nutty, and browns. This will take about 5 minutes.
- Add the 16 oz bag of marshmallows and stir until the marshmallows are completely melted.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Biscoff cookie butter, vanilla extract and sea salt. Add the Rice Krispies and chopped Biscoff cookies; gently stir until well coated with the marshmallows. Stir in the remaining 2 cups of mini marshmallows.
- Transfer mixture to the prepared pan. Lightly press the mixture into the pan, using a greased spatula. You can also lightly grease your hands and press the mixture into the pan. Don’t press too firmly or the treats will end up hard and dry. Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt on top, If desired.
- Let the Rice Krispie Treats sit for about 1 hour. Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Use parchment paper for easy removal of treats from the pan.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
