These are a revalation! Made them with Lurpak danish butter and they were absolutely addictive. My new go-to crispy. Thanks for perfecting the recipe!

These are divine! Such a simple recipe that I could make them whilst catching up on Mad Men! This may be my new go-to dessert. Much more unexpected, and in my opinion, tastier than, cupcakes or cookies. Good work!

I used the idea of these to make flavored rice crispy treats for the sales girls at the hotel I work in to use as give away treats at a bridal fair. They said ” These aren’t fancy enough” … I told them I didn’t have any time to make more. 400 of anything takes a long time to make!

The next day I go in, and all they can talk about is how we had people walking past all the cake pops and cupcakes to get the “gourmet” rice crispy treats at our booth!

We were the hit of the bridal fair and have people calling and asking if we can make them for their wedding. So take that non-believers.. the rice crispy treat is king!

I just made these last night based on the rave reviews and agree that they are delicious. The hint of salt really adds something to these and cuts the sweetness of the marshmallows. I am not sure I waited long enough to brown the butter. I was too afraid of overdoing it that I think I did not take the butter all the way to the “brown butter” stage. I also used a non-stick dark pan, which makes it hard to tell if the butter is brown. I used small marshmallows because that is all the store had and it worked well and they melted off the heat in the butter easily. I can’t wait to take to book club tonight to see what everyone thinks! Thanks for another delicious recipe.

OK, so your post is a few years old, but I have to tell you, I discovered a new addition to this recipe that will blow your socks off. And I apologize if this was suggested somewhere else but I didn’t read all the posts. So, when you throw the marshmallows in the butter, simply add 2 tablespoons of finely chopped ROSEMARY to the mixture. You will be amazed at how simple and different this is, but people taste them and they just don’t know what to think…so they try another. It really is a good combination of savory and sweet. Enjoy!

I have made this recipe a few times, and each time, they get RAVE reviews. I will never go back to traditional Rice Krispie Treats. These are INCREDIBLE. Thank you!

These are incredible! I doubled the recipe and accidentally made them with salted butter. I didn’t realize until after the sea salt was put in but they are delicious! Hopefully my Christmas party won’t think them too salty because I don’t think I can eat all of it on my own!

I made these two days ago and they were amazing…possibly the best rice krispie treats I’ve ever had! I love the hint of sea salt and the nutty aroma. Thanks for the recipe!

Try fluff in them….its creamier somehow and adds even more vanilla flavor to them!

Faaaantastic, was bopping around looking for a better recipe for basic crispy treats, thought salted sounded amazing and since it was your recipe and your guide has never failed me before, I went with it.

Splendid. Whole family ate em up. I’ll have to try caramel or peanut butter next time, maybe even chocolate! Thanks.
