Notes
- Rice Krispies cereal: You can also use a similar cereal in place of the Rice Krispies.
- Brown sugar: I recommend using dark brown sugar for richer flavor. You could also use light brown sugar if you prefer.
- Corn syrup: Dark brown corn syrup will give you the most flavor, but light corn syrup also works.
- Butter: I use salted butter because the salt helps to balance out the sweetness in the treats.
- Chocolate chips: You can substitute milk, semisweet, or bittersweet chocolate chips depending on how sweet you would like it to be.
