Microwave Rice Krispies
Microwave Rice Krispies are super quick and easy to make and are chewy, gooey and so delicious. Just 2 ingredients and 2 minutes needed for this treat!
Yield: 1 serving
Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- ½ cup mini marshmallows (see notes for regular marshmallows)
- ⅓ to ½ cup Rice Krispies cereal
Instructions
- Spray a microwave safe bowl with cooking spray. (Be sure to use a decent size, semi-deep bowl because the marshmallows will expand.)
- Add the marshmallows and microwave on high for 40-45 seconds. Watch closely so the marshmallows don’t expand too much and overflow the bowl. If they are getting close, simply pause the microwave. The marshmallows will deflate right away and then you can continue with the microwave time.
- Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir the marshmallows. They should be melty and gooey. Add the cereal, using just ⅓ cup if you want more a more gooey Rice Krispie treat, and stir well to combine.
- Enjoy immediately!

Notes
Marshmallows: If you are using regular sized marshmallows, you’ll need 4 to 5. You’ll also need to microwave them closer to 1 minute to get them melted and gooey. Watch very carefully and stop the microwave as needed to ensure they don’t expand too much and spill out of the bowl.
Cereal: Use ⅓ cup cereal for more gooey, marshmallowy Rice Krispies. Or use up to ½ cup cereal for a sturdier Rice Krispie treat.
Storing: These Rice Krispies are meant to be enjoyed immediately. They will harden if they are left (even if stored covered).
