One of my go-to quick and easy dessert bar recipes has to be super easy Rice Krispies Treats. Every time we go to the lake as a family, I whip up a batch of rice krispies treats and it has become a staple. 

I wanted to create a more decadent version of the classic rice krispie treat by adding salted caramel sauce and the results were mind blowing! 

Why do I love these Caramel Rice Krispies Treats?

  • They are super easy, no-bake, and made with only 4-5 ingredients. You can’t beat that!
  • The salted caramel sauce adds richness and depth of flavor to a classic dessert bar.
  • An ooey gooey bar just became even more gooey…in all the best ways.

    I love that I can make these caramel rice krispie treats at any time because I keep all of these baking ingredients in my pantry (minus the butter, of course!) We love that is a quick, easy, no-bake dessert.

    Caramel Rice Krispies Treats Ingredients:

    • Butter — for extra salty-sweet flavor, use salted butter.
    • Marshmallows — use mini marshmallows in this recipe.
    • Rice Krispies — use any type of crisp rice cereal like Rice Krispies.
    • Caramel Sauce — I suggest using a thicker caramel sauce like you find at Trader Joe’s. For a thicker caramel sauce, you can also use caramel dip.
    • Sea Salt Flakes — I love to use Maldon sea salt flakes.
