Classic Ooy gooey Rice crispy squares! This was a favorite treat of mine from my childhood. Made simply with just marshmallows, butter and rice crispy's. This was probably one of the first desserts I learned how to make. Super easy and fun plus delicious, equals must learn how to make! I'm not sure the exact age I was when I first made these on my own, but I would guess around 10. So if you are not a baker but still love desserts, then this is the treat for you.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
Dip a butter knife in water for smoothing the top of your squares down. The water helps prevent the knife from sticking.
Be sure to remove the pan from the heat before adding the rice crispy cereal. If it gets too hot you may find your squares become quite hard once cooled.
Cover right away after spreading into your pan. If they do not get covered they will become stale and hard.
