Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 cups crispy rice cereal
• 1 pinch pinch of salt

Directions

Step 1

Prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with butter. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the butter is melted, add the honey and light brown sugar to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture begins to gently bubble, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, add the crispy rice cereal. Pour the warm honey-butter mixture over the cereal and gently fold together with a spatula until the cereal is evenly coated.

Step 6

Transfer the cereal mixture into the prepared 8x8-inch baking pan. Press it down firmly and evenly using the back of a spoon or your hands (you can lightly grease your hands to prevent sticking).

Step 7

Allow the Honey Krispies to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes or in the refrigerator for 15 minutes until set.

Step 8

Once set, cut into 12 squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!

Step 9

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
