Banana Pudding Rice Krispies Treats! It combines the creamy goodness of banana pudding with the classic crunch of Rice Krispies treats.
Ingredients:
4 cups mini marshmallows
1/4 cup banana pudding mix (dry powder, instant)
1/4 cup butter
5 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1/2 cup crushed vanilla wafers (plus extra for topping)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
1/4 cup banana chips or fresh banana slices (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Pan: Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.
2. Melt the Butter & Marshmallows: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add in the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
3. Add Banana Pudding Mix: Stir in the dry banana pudding mix until well combined.
4. Mix in the Cereal & Wafers: Remove from heat, then add the Rice Krispies cereal and crushed vanilla wafers. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
5. Press into the Pan: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan. Use a spatula (greased with butter to prevent sticking) to press the mixture evenly into the pan.
6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle additional crushed vanilla wafers on top and press them lightly into the treats. If using, drizzle with melted white chocolate for extra sweetness.
7. Cool and Slice: Let the treats cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then slice into squares.
8. Garnish: Add banana chips or fresh banana slices on top just before serving, if desired.
Enjoy your Banana Pudding Rice Krispies Treats!
