Cinnamon Roll Rice Krispie Treats Recipe

Thursday, May 10, 2012 by Lolli 13 Comments

If you know anything about me, you probably know that I have a sweet tooth (my header gives that little fact about me away). I have long held a place in my heart for rice krispie treats, but only recently have I discovered flavored rice krispie treats. Rice krispie treats are simple, but flavored rice krispie treats are simply amazing.

Want the taste of cinnamon rolls without all the work? These Cinnamon Roll Rice Krispie Treats with a cream cheese frosting swirl are a no-bake, no-hassle alternative. You won't believe how delicious they are!

A few months ago, I made cinnamon roll rice krispie treats and had to hold myself back from eating the entire pan. They were that good. I’ve made them a couple times since then, but for some odd reason never got around to sharing the recipe here. I apologize. It took a week of filling in for the 5 Minutes for Mom Food column to make me realize my over-sight and go searching for the pictures I took when I made them back in January.

Combine the ease of rice krispie treats with the flavor of cinnamon rolls.
Author: Lolli
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup (1/2 stick) butter
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • 2 tsp molasses
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 (10.5 oz) bag miniature marshmallows
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
  1. Butter a 9x13 dish; set aside.
  2. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Stir in salt, molasses, and cinnamon.
  4. Add marshmallows to melted butter mixture and stir constantly until marshmallows have melted.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  6. Fold in Rice Krispie Cereal, a cup at a time, and stir until evenly coated.
  7. Pour Rice Krispie Treat mixture into buttered baking dish.
  8. Spread mixture evenly into pan with a buttered spatula, waxed paper, or buttered hands.
  9. Allow to cool several minutes, then cut while still slightly warm.
  10. Optional: Use your hands to round the edges of the cut squares.
  11. Allow to cool completely (remember not to stack rice krispie treats while they are cooling or they will be forever stuck together).
  12. Swirl cream cheese frosting on the tops of the rice krispie treats and then dust lightly with cinnamon.
Cream Cheese Frosting:
  1. Whip together butter and cream cheese with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  2. Stir in vanilla and then add in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, and mix until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Spread or pipe over rice krispie treats.
