    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. On cutting board unroll dough into one rectangle. Sprinkle carrot and 1/4 cup of the KELLOGG’S RICE KRISPIES cereal on top. Use fingers to lightly press cereal into dough. Using pizza cutter or sharp knife separate dough into 8 triangles along perforation lines.

2. Place remaining 3/4 cup cereal in shallow dish. Place one frankfurter on wide end of each triangle. Roll up. Roll in cereal, coating outside of dough with cereal. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375º F for 22 to 24 minutes or until dough is golden brown. Serve with ketchup and mustard.

Rice Krispies Treats are a huge hit in our family. I make them when the kids are in bed so in the morning they have a surprise. I love to add food coloring to the melted marshmallow. The kids never know what color treat they are going to get. Another yummy treat is to use the strawberry flavored marshmallows and add chocolate chips to the cereal before mixing.
