Hot Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats


My family loves Rice Krispies Treats, as you may have noticed.  This is a new version that I came across and absolutely love. They are gooey, chocolatey, and absolutely loaded with marshmallows.  So what's not to love?  In fact, a certain member of my family (who shall remain anonymous) who claims to dislike chocolate (but eats it incredibly frequently by choice and request) said that these are the best rice krispies treats ever.  Better than original rice krispies treats.  Wow.  I don't think that you can get a much better guarantee of incredible deliciousness than that.


Hot Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats


6 cups cocoa rice krispies
1/4 cup butter
1 (10.5 ounce) bag mini marshmallows, plus 4 cups mini marshmallows, divided
6 Tablespoons hot chocolate mix


Thoroughly spray a 9x9 inch square pan with cooking spray.  Place the butter in a large microwaveable bowl, and melt in the microwave.  Add the 10.5 ounce bag of mini marshmallows and the hot chocolate mix, then stir combine.  Return to the microwave until the marshmallows are melted and the mixture is smooth.  Add the cocoa rice krispies and stir well.  Add two cups of mini marshmallows and stir until marshmallows are distributed evenly.  Pour rice krispies mixture into prepared pan.  With lightly greased hands (to prevent sticking), press the rice krispies mixture evenly into the pan.  Immediately spread the remaining two cups of mini marshmallows onto the rice krispies treats and press firmly.  Let cool before cutting into squares.  Makes 16 rice krispies treats.


Enjoy!  -Cardamommy
