    Why use Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®?

    As the first crisped rice cereal, Kellogg’s® Rice Krispies® has been bringing families together in the kitchen for over 80 years.

    To experience the timeless flavor, make your Rice Krispies Treats® squares with the original Rice Krispies® brand cereal.

    Where to buy


1. In large bowl combine KELLOGG’S JUMBO MULTI-GRAIN KRISPIES cereal, KELLOGG’S RICE KRIPSIES cereal and KELLOGG’S COCOA KRISPIES cereal.

2. In small bowl whisk together orange juice, honey, oil and cinnamon. Drizzle over cereal mixture, tossing just until coated. Spread in 15 x 10 x 1-inch baking pan lined with foil and coated with cooking spray.

3. Bake at 300º F for 35 to 40 minutes or until just beginning to brown, stirring every 15 minutes. Lift foil from pan. Completely cool, occasionally stirring to break into clumps. Stir in marshmallows and cherries. Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

As we approached the holidays last year, I began to realize that time and circumstance was not going to allow me to do my usual holiday baking. While my son and I both are trying to lose weight, it just seemed wrong not to have SOME treats for the holidays. So when a family member dropped off a couple of big boxes of Rice Crispies, I called my 12 year old son from work and told him we would make some treats together. He responded enthusiastically, but then admitted sheepishly that he had already opened a box and had a big bowl. I responded that I didn't even know he liked them! Since then, I have learned that having Rice Crispies available in the mornings is one of the easiest ways to lure that boy out of bed for school! Who knew!
