Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Treats

Salty sweet and so delicious these Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Treats will be a hit at your next party.  Made easily in one bowl with no baking required.  

Classic, easy to make and always a hit.  You will love this spin on the traditional Rice Krispie Treat.  It's different because I added cocoa powder, salted caramel chips and chocolate chips.  

I found my salted caramel chips at Trader Joe's and they are super salty and delicious. As far as I am concerned chocolate and salt are a match made in heaven.

This recipe is adapted for my Best Rice Krispie Treat recipe you can find here.  

Tips for the perfect Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Treats

1. Use good unsalted butter AKA Kerrygold.  There is so much butter in here that the brand you choose really matters.
2. Don't get your melted butter too hot.  Take your time, be patient and cook it over medium heat only.
3. Don't use stale Rice Krispies.  Well, that is another obvious tip but I always use a fresh from the store unopened box and it makes them better.
4. These are best eaten the day or day after they are made.
