Description

Indulge in the rich and decadent flavors of Brown Butter Dulce de Leche Rice Krispie Treats. These no-bake treats are elevated with the nutty aroma of brown butter, swirls of sweet dulce de leche, and a hint of sea salt for a perfect balance of flavors.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Rice Krispie Treats:

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dulce de leche (plus extra for drizzling, optional)
  • 1 (10 oz) bag mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat until golden brown and nutty.
  2. Add Flavor: Stir in sea salt and vanilla. Add marshmallows and stir until melted.
  3. Swirl Dulce de Leche: Fold in dulce de leche for a marbled effect. Mix in Rice Krispies until coated.
  4. Press Into Pan: Press mixture into a pan, drizzle with dulce de leche, and sprinkle with sea salt.
  5. Cool and Slice: Let cool for 1 hour, then slice into squares.
