Description
These Brown Butter Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats are an elevated twist on the classic no-bake treat, combining nutty brown butter, creamy Biscoff cookie butter, crunchy cookie pieces, and gooey marshmallows for a rich, spiced flavor.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon pieces
- 16 ounces mini marshmallows
- 2 cups mini marshmallows (separate from the 16 ounces above)
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 8 cups crispy rice cereal
- 2 cups chopped Biscoff cookies
- Flaky sea salt for sprinkling on top (optional)
Instructions
- Grease a 9×9-inch pan for extra-thick treats or a 9×13-inch pan for standard thickness. You may also line the pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, stirring often, until it foams, turns golden, and develops a nutty aroma. This takes about 5 minutes.
- Add the 16 ounces of mini marshmallows to the browned butter and stir until completely melted. Avoid overcooking.
- Remove the pot from heat. Stir in the Biscoff cookie butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt until fully combined.
- Add the crispy rice cereal and chopped Biscoff cookies. Gently fold until evenly coated.
- Stir in the remaining 2 cups of mini marshmallows for extra gooey pockets throughout.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Lightly press it into place using a greased spatula or greased hands—do not press too firmly.
- Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top, if desired, and let the treats set for about 1 hour before cutting into squares.
Notes
- Do not overcook the marshmallows to keep the treats soft.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal from the pan.
- Let the bars cool completely before slicing for clean squares.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
