Instructions
For Nutella Rice Krispie Cake
- Using a saucepan, melt the marshmallows and butter over low heat. Do this until the marshmallows turn to a liquid consistency. With that, constantly stir to avoid sticking.
- Then, take your large bowl and stir the melted marshmallows and Rice Krispies together until they combined well. After that, set aside.
- Afterward, spray your 9x9-inch pan with cooking spray. Then, scatter your mini chocolate chips at the bottom of your pan. Because of that, the chocolate chips will stick to the cake after you finish the process. Afterward, pour the melted marshmallows and Rice Krispies into the 9x9-inch pan.
- Next, take the same saucepan you used to melt the marshmallow. Then, add the remaining mini chocolate chips and Nutella. After that, warm it up until it becomes melted and smooth.
- Then, pour the Nutella and mini chocolate chip Rice Krispie mixture into the pan. And press it down using your hands. Afterward, use the large spoon to even it out.
- After that, chill the pan in the refrigerator. And make sure to wait for the chocolate to set for about 30 minutes.
- When the chocolate has set, slice and enjoy. In addition to that, you can drizzle melted chocolate on top of the Rice Krispie cake. To melt the chocolate chips, place chocolate chips in a small bowl. And put them in the microwave. With that, use a spoon to drizzle.
For Simple Rice Crispy Cake
- Before anything else, take a large microwavable bowl, place three tablespoons of butter. After that, microwave on high for about 45 seconds or until melted.
- Then, add one pack of marshmallows. So with that, toss it using a rubber spatula. After that, microwave for another one and a half minutes. Or until the marshmallows melt completely. In addition to that, stirring the mixture for about 45 seconds ensures that it combines entirely.
- Afterward, place 6 cups of Rice Krispies into the bowl. And make sure to mix well. Then, press the mixture into an 8-inch round pan that you greased with a cooking spray. After that, set it aside.
- Next, repeat the process in the other 8-inch pan. With that, let it cool completely.
- Once the Rice Krispies cool entirely, remove the Rice Krispies cakes from the pans.
- Lastly, stack the Rice Krispies Cake. Do not forget to add frosting in between. And spread one layer of frosting using an offset spatula on top of the Rice Krispie cake. Afterward, sprinkle it with your colorful sprinkles.
For Rice Krispies Neopolitan Cake
- First and foremost, grease three pieces of an 8-inch cake pan. And line them with parchment paper. Then, set them aside.
- To make the chocolate layer, microwave two tablespoons of butter and chocolate in high setting in a large microwavable bowl. Make sure to do it for about 30 seconds intervals until the ingredients melt completely. After that, toss half of the pack of regular marshmallows into the mixture using a rubber spatula.
- Then, microwave again on high for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until melted. Afterward, immediately stir 4 cups of Rice Krispies with the mixture. Next, pour and press the Rice Krispies mixture into an 8-inch round pan with greased hands. After that, ensure to let the cake sit for 30 minutes or until it becomes firm.
- For the vanilla layer, repeat the process of making the chocolate layer. However, do not put chocolate.
- For the strawberry layer, repeat the vanilla layer process. But, use strawberry marshmallows instead of the regular ones.
- Then, stack your Rice Krispie Cake, spreading half a cup of frosting between layers. After that, decorate your cake with a dollop of frosting on top. And add Maraschino cherry on every single dollop of frosting. Cut, serve, and enjoy!
Notes
Essentially, grease your hands with cooking spray when pressing the Rice Krispie down in the pan. As a result, it will prevent the Rice Krispies from sticking in your hands. Moreover, you can use a loaf pan if you want chunky pieces. In addition to that, store the leftover Rice Krispie cake in an airtight container at room temperature. Because of this, it will last up to five days.
