Chocolate Hazelnut Rice Krispies Treats
Ingredients
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (54 grams)
1/8 teaspoon salt
10 ounces marshmallows (large ones) (280 grams)
1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
1/8 teaspoon espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups Rice Krispies (140 grams)
1/4 cup roasted hazelnuts or almonds, chopped
2 oz milk or dark chocolate
Instructions
Line an 8 inch square pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. When it’s about halfway melted, add the salt and swirl it around. Add espresso powder and stir until dissolved.
Add the marshmallows and stir over medium heat until they’re about halfway melted, then reduce heat slightly and continue stirring until they are fully melted. Stir in the Nutella.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Add the cereal and hazelnuts (or almonds) and stir until fully mixed, then press into the pan and let cool completely.
Lift from pan and cut into squares.
Notes
If you use salted butter, omit the salt.If you like a gooey and less stiff bar, use 5 cups of cereal instead of 6.

I am here to tell you Lidl’s store brand hazelnut spread is better than Nutella. If you have a Lidl in your area, try it. Try their bakery croissants while you’re at it.
