Imagine the gooey crunch of classic Rice Krispie treats, elevated with layers of buttery caramel and a touch of salt. These Salted Caramel Rice Krispie Bars are the perfect balance of sweet and salty—simple to make and impossible to resist!

Ingredients:

For the Rice Krispie Layer:

6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

1 bag (10 oz) mini marshmallows

3 tbsp unsalted butter

For the Salted Caramel Layer:

1 cup granulated sugar

6 tbsp unsalted butter

½ cup heavy cream

½ tsp flaky sea salt (plus extra for garnish)

Instructions:

Make the Rice Krispie Base:

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add marshmallows and stir until fully melted.

Remove from heat and gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal until coated.

Press the mixture into a greased 9x13 pan, using a spatula or wax paper to smooth the top.

Prepare the Caramel Sauce:

Heat the sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it melts and turns golden.

Add the butter and stir until combined (be careful—it’ll bubble up!).

Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Stir in the sea salt.

Let the caramel cool for about 5 minutes, then pour evenly over the Rice Krispie layer.

Set and Garnish:

Sprinkle extra flaky sea salt over the caramel layer for that salty pop.

Let the bars cool completely at room temperature or in the fridge until the caramel sets.

Cut and Serve:

Use a sharp knife to cut into squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy the sweet-salty perfection!

Pro Tips:

For extra indulgence, drizzle melted chocolate over the caramel layer.

Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days—if they last that long!
