These banana Rice Krispies treats are a sweet throwback to old-fashioned desserts, and trust me—they’re hard to resist.
INGREDIENTS
- 6 cup Rice Krispies
- 1/4 cup of butter or margarine
- 10 oz bag mini marshmallows
- 1 small box of banana cream instant pudding mix (You could also use 1 oz of freeze dried bananas, powdered)
- optional: freeze dried bananas for topping
You can turn this recipe into banana pudding rice krispies treats by adding 1 cup crushed vanilla wafers (plus more for topping, optional)
- Use parchment paper or butter to prepare an 8 inch square dish.
- Place butter and marshmallows in a large bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
- Stir and return to microwave at 30 second intervals until melted *
- Add banana pudding and stir until completely combined. Fold in cereal.
- Pour into your prepared dish. I use a piece of parchment paper to press my treats into the pan (no sticky butter fingers!) but go ahead and use your butter fingers if you don’t have parchment paper.
- Next take a spoon and scrap all of the marshmallows and cereal that stuck to the bottom of the bowl and eat immediately!
* My microwave takes 1 ½ minutes to melt the marshmallows perfectly.
