Servings 0

Ingredients

  • 12 cups Rice Krispies
  • 20 oz large marshmallows about 80-90
  • 8 TBS butter
  • cooking spray
  • 1 bag caramels
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup semi sweet chips
  • 1 TBS butter
  • 1 TBS heavy cream

Instructions

Make the Rice Krispie Treats

  • (The ingredients listed are enough for two batches. Make each batch separately as follows:)
  • Spray a 13 x 9 pan with cooking spray.
  • Melt 4 TBS butter in a large pan over medium heat.
  • Add 40-45 marshmallows and let them melt. Watch carefully so that they don’t brown or burn. Keep stirring!
  • Once the marshmallows are all melted remove the pot from the heat and add 6 cups of Rice Krispies and stir until coated.
  • Put the mixture into the prepared pan – filling half of it.
  • Make the second batch the same way adding the mixture to the other half of the pan.
  • Let the treats harden before you attempt to stuff them.
  • Remove the treats from the pan and cut them into roughly 2? squares.
  • Using a small, sharp knife cut a hole in each treat. Trim the piece removed so you have a piece that fit back on top.
  • Lay the pieces out on a tray with the bottoms and tops aligned so you can fit them back together after the caramel has been added.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter in a double boiler or a bowl over simmering water.
  • Coat each hole with chocolate.
  • Save the remaining chocolate to drizzle over top when the treats are finished.

For the Caramel stuffing:

  • Unwrap the caramels, set aside around 10 for drizzling on top.
  • Add the caramels and the cream to a small sauce pot and heat over medium low heat until the caramels are melted.
  • Fill each chocolate coated cavity with caramel just about to the top.
  • Carefully place the small piece on top of the caramel to cover.
  • Drizzle the top with melted chocolate – if it had hardened while filling the treats just warm it up.
  • Drizzle some caramel over top and finish with a bit more chocolate.
