A glass baking dish sits on a textured countertop filled with freshly pressed Rice Krispies treats. The golden-brown cereal mixture fills the entire interior of the rectangular dish. The surface of the treats appears even, compact, and slightly glossy from the melted marshmallow. In the background, kitchen items including a measuring cup and a box edge are partially visible.

Notes

This is a classic favorite dessert and one of only a few desserts my mother included in the cookbook she made for me when I graduated from college. It's great to keep these ingredients on hand so you can make it whenever you're moved by the spirit!
