4.1 from 2 reviews

Delicious and easy-to-make Pistachio Rice Krispie Treats combining classic cereal with creamy pistachio pudding for a nutty twist on a beloved snack.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 24 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 9 cups (237g) Rice Krispies Cereal
  • 1 (3.4 ounce) box pistachio pudding mix

Wet Ingredients

  • 15 ounces (424g) mini marshmallows
  • 8 tablespoons (113g) unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon (15ml) vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×13-inch pan with foil or parchment paper and spray it with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Cereal: Measure out the Rice Krispies cereal and place them in a large mixing bowl, ready to be coated.
  3. Melt Butter: In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat, ensuring it doesn’t brown or burn.
  4. Add Marshmallows and Flavorings: Add the mini marshmallows to the melted butter, stirring continuously until fully melted and smooth. Remove the pot from heat and immediately stir in the pistachio pudding mix and vanilla extract to incorporate the flavors.
  5. Combine Cereal and Marshmallow Mixture: Pour the marshmallow-pistachio mixture over the Rice Krispies cereal and gently stir until all the cereal is evenly coated.
  6. Press Mixture into Pan: Transfer the coated cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Use a piece of wax paper sprayed with nonstick spray to firmly press and compact the treats evenly into the pan without sticking to your hands.
  7. Set and Slice: Allow the treats to cool and set until firm, about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Once set, slice into bars.
  8. Storage: Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For freezing, cool completely, cut into individual bars, wrap each in wax paper, and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • Spraying wax paper with nonstick cooking spray helps prevent sticking when pressing treats into the pan.
  • Allow treats to fully cool and set before slicing to ensure clean cuts.
  • Individual wrapping bars before freezing prevents freezer burn and sticking.
  • Use medium to low heat when melting butter and marshmallows to avoid burning.
