Feed Me Fridays: Salted Brown Butter Crispy Treats

Posted in feed me fridays by littlemissmel on the February 12th, 2010

It’s Friday again! So that means I have another post up at Style Lush! Ever made homemade play dough? Use natural dyes? Come on over to find out how!

I have come across this recipe twice over the past couple of weeks and have finally decided to give it a try. Now, I am a LOVER of the original recipe and was quite skeptical on anything else tasting quite as delicious. My first thought was, browned butter? You mean the same taste as when I walk away from the kitchen for a moment only to find when I return, I’ve got BURNT butter in my pan? There is a particular taste to it, but when you intentionally try to do it, it’s quite LOVELY. Plus the added salt is HEAVENLY. Definitely a dessert you should try when you want something savory. Enjoy!

Salted Brown Butter Crispy Treats

 

Salted Brown Butter Crispy Treats

1 stick unsalted butter
1 10-ounce bag marshmallows (I use 43-44 marshmallows instead of whole bag)
heaping 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt (I use kosher)
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Butter will foam, then turn a nutty brown color. (Be sure to stay with your butter the entire time!) Stir frequently until browned.

Take butter off the heat, add marshmallows and salt, then stir until smooth. Stir in Rice Krispies and mix until combined.

Pour and press firmly in a non-stick sprayed 8×8 glass pan. Cool and cut.

  3. I personally like these better than the original version but I love salt and the extra butter doesn’t hurt either…

  4. I’m going to have to try this. My favorite rice krispie bar variation is to add a Tablespoon of rum extract to the marshmallows before mixing in the cereal. Butter Rum Rice Krispies!
