Smores rice crispy treats for two, made in a bread loaf pan. Rice krispies treats layered over graham crackers, mixed with chocolate chunks, and topped with toasted marshmallows.
The world cannot have too many renditions of s'mores. It's true, I checked. There is something magical about toasted marshmallows, melted chocolate and graham crackers. It never gets old. S'mores are always welcome, and even more so if it's warm enough to eat one in the grass while barefoot.
There's something even more magical about s'mores when you mix in gooey rice krispies. Smores rice crispy treats are born, and they're so very good! Just look at the layers!
I made these rice krispies treats by first placing a layer of graham crackers on the bottom of my pan. Then, I made my standard recipe for a small batch of rice krispies treats and piled it on top. While the rice krispies were still warm, I pressed big chocolate chunks into the top. The heat of the cereal melted the chocolate and made it super gooey and super delicious! Then, I snipped jumbo marshmallows in half, lined them up on top, and torched them until golden.
Hint: this is the exact mini torch I use all the time.
It was a valiant effort to make a dessert that you would make again and again this summer. Ahh, the things I do for you ;)
Smores rice crispy treats with toasted marshmallows:
I noticed a funny thing each time I make rice crispy treats: no matter what size pan I use, they're always gone in the same day. So, in order to be kind to my thighs, I decided to make a smaller serving size in a bread loaf pan. If I really want more, I can make them again, but chances are, I'll be happy eating both servings, heh.
This is one of those desserts that my husband sees on the blog and never got a chance to taste it. Sorry, babe. These are too good to share!
Did you see my Strawberry Rice Crispy Treats? I think you'll like them, too!
S'mores Rice Krispies
S'mores in rice krispy form.
Ingredients
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons butter
- pinch of salt
- 2 cup rice krispies cereal (I used the brown rice crisp cereal)
- ⅓ cup chocolate chunks
- 2 graham cracker sheets
- 9 large marshmallows
Instructions
- In a small sauce pan, combine the mini marshmallows, butter, and salt. Warm over medium heat until everything melts into a smooth sauce. Stir often.
- Stir in the rice krispies, and remove from the heat.
- Stir the chocolate chunks into the rice krispies. In order to prevent melting the chocolate too much, I studded the rice krispie mixture with the chocolate chunks after it was already in the pan instead. It was just for aesthetics...do what you like.
- Press the rice krispie mixture flat onto the graham crackers. Next, snip the large marshmallows in half and dot them over the top.
- Broil the marshmallows until brown (about 4 minutes), or use a culinary torch.

I agree that cicada shells are oddly fascinating in a kind of creepy way, you won't find me seeking them out. What you will find me doing is hip-checking my boys out of the way to eat as many of these s'mores krispie treats as possible before they can get their grubby little hands on them. It's call Proper Parenting. ;)

These are so cute! What a fun picnic treat!

I'm going to pretend I didn't read the part about your interest in bug "shells", and focus on the food.. ;-) I love this idea for camping, because it seems like it would travel well! No broken cookies or refrigerator needed. And because who wouldn't want to eat s'mores rice crispys???

Barbara | Creative Culinary says
I just made these a couple of weeks ago; well a bit different but same idea. Except I had to first do a trial run and burn the marshmallows on top. Not recommended!
Melanie @ Carmel Moments says

Love the tray!
