Rice Krispie Treats for the rest of us.
Making Rice Krispie Treats with brown butter is nothing new, it is however, new to me.
I love RKTs, always have. They are ridiculously fast to make and I've made them with Trix, Fruity Pebbles, Coco Puffs, Fruit Loops... if it's a totally non-nutritive sugary cereal, I will combine it with butter and marshmallows melted together and basically eat it out of hand for the next day or so.
Oh and also, all the ingredients can be found easily - my bodega carries them even.
So when someone's Facebook status referenced making RKTs with brown butter my mouth watered immediately. And this weekend I made two batches.
To one batch I added cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla bean paste. To the other batch I added vanilla bean paste, extra vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. To both batches I added rainbow nonpareils for fun.
And oh my my my, are they ever delicious! SO much better with brown butter! And have one very vanilla-ey and the other a little spiced makes them even more tasty.
Cute right?
Yeahhh I REALLY need to find my camera cord. Cellphone photos probably give my food cancer or something.
I would give you a recipe, but just easier to tell you to Google it. I recommend the Smitten Kitchen.
