Yes, I made more rice krispie treats. Shoot me.
These rice krispie treats were so perfect that I may have to call them my favorite rice krispie treat variety ever. I’ve made others that were good – from simple to rich – but these were just perfection.
I don’t know if they even need any more explanation than that.

Yum! These sound really good! Thanks for the recipe!
Well these look delicious! I love regular rice krispies but with the addition of caramels, I’m sure they would taste incredible!
These sound delicious! I’ve really been liking the caramel and sea salt combination.
Yeah, they are definitely not diet friendly…but sometimes desserts are worth the occasional cheating. ;)
Those look and sound delicious! Too bad they don’t quite fit in with the lower carb diet I’m on, but I guess they’ll work for cheat days!
