Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats Ingredients

For the Base

  • Salted Butter – Adds richness and flavor; can substitute with unsalted butter, just adjust salt in the recipe.
  • Marshmallows – Provide the gooey, sticky texture; use mini marshmallows for quicker melting.
  • Lotus Biscoff Spread – Infuses a caramelized, spiced flavor; alternative could be cookie butter, though the taste will differ slightly.
  • Rice Krispies – Acts as the crunchy base; any puffed rice cereal can be used for similar texture.

For the Topping

  • White Chocolate – Offers a smooth, sweet topping; can substitute with milk or dark chocolate.
  • Lotus Biscoff Biscuits – Used as a crunchy topping; any crunchy biscuit works as a substitute, like speculoos or graham crackers for a different flavor.

These Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats are not just easy to make, but they also bring a delightful twist to your dessert table!

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats

Step 1: Prepare the Pan
Start by lining a 20cm (8-inch) square tin with baking paper, allowing some overhang to make removing the treats easier later. This step is crucial for clean slicing and will prevent the mixture from sticking to the pan. Make sure the paper is smoothed into the corners and sides for a neat finish.

Step 2: Melt the Base Ingredients
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 100g of salted butter, 200g of Lotus Biscoff spread, and 250g of mini marshmallows. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between to ensure everything melts evenly and smoothly. Aim for a glossy, homogenous mixture without lumps, which should take about 1-2 minutes total.

Step 3: Combine with Rice Krispies
Once your mixture is smooth and melted, add 200g of Rice Krispies into the bowl. Gently fold the crispy cereal into the melted mixture until all the rice cereal is coated. This step is essential for achieving that perfect blend of crunchy and chewy textures characteristic of Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats.

Step 4: Pack the Mixture into the Tin
Transfer the combined mixture into the prepared square tin. Using your hands (rubbed lightly with butter to avoid sticking), pack the mixture down firmly and evenly into the corners. Make sure it’s tightly compressed to help the treats keep their shape when cut, and create a flat surface on top for easy spreading later.

Step 5: Melt the Chocolate Topping
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 150g of white chocolate in 30-second bursts, stirring well between each interval. Be careful not to overheat, as chocolate can burn easily. Once melted and smooth, set it aside briefly until the rice krispies layer is ready to be topped.

Step 6: Pour and Spread the Chocolate
Once the rice krispie base has been packed down firmly, carefully pour the melted white chocolate over the top of the mixture. Use a spatula to spread it evenly to the edges, creating a smooth surface. The glossy finish of the white chocolate will provide a beautiful contrast to the Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats.

Step 7: Add the Biscuit Crumble
Crush some Lotus Biscoff biscuits into small pieces and sprinkle them over the melted chocolate topping. Add as much or as little as you like for crunch and flavor variety. This final touch elevates the treats and adds a delightful Biscoff crunch on top, making them even more irresistible.

Step 8: Chill to Set
Place the entire tin in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for about 30 minutes or until firm. This step is crucial for helping the chocolate and rice mix set properly, making it easier to slice into squares. Look for a firm texture when gently pressed to confirm they’re ready.

Step 9: Slice and Serve
After the mixture has set, remove the tray from the refrigerator. Use the overhanging baking paper to lift the whole slab out onto a cutting board. With a sharp knife, slice into squares of your preferred size. Now, these delicious Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats are ready to enjoy!

Make Ahead Options

These Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats are perfect for busy home cooks looking to save time! You can prepare the base mixture of salted butter, Biscoff spread, marshmallows, and Rice Krispies up to 24 hours in advance. Simply pack it into the prepared tin and cover it tightly with plastic wrap to prevent drying out. When you’re ready to serve, melt the white chocolate and finish the treats by spreading it on top, then adding the crushed biscuits. Allow them to set in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This way, you can enjoy these delicious, no-bake treats just as fresh as on the day you made them!

How to Store and Freeze Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats

Room Temperature: Keep your Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days to maintain their delicious texture and flavor.

Fridge: For longer freshness, store them in the refrigerator where they can last for up to 2 weeks. Just ensure they’re well-wrapped to prevent moisture absorption.

Freezer: You can freeze these treats for up to 3 months! Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag to maintain their taste.

  • Caramel Sauce Drizzle: A drizzle of warm caramel sauce adds an extra layer of sweetness, beautifully complementing the spiced notes of Biscoff.

  • Coffee or Espresso: A bold cup of coffee or espresso balances out the sweetness, making it an ideal treat for afternoon breaks.

Expert Tips for Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats

  • Melt Smoothly: Ensure your marshmallow mixture is completely melted for a silky blend with the Rice Krispies, avoiding clumps.

  • Avoid Chocolate Burn: When melting chocolate, stir frequently and use low heat to prevent burning. Patience is key for perfect results!

  • Press Firmly: Pack the Rice Krispie mixture tightly in the tin to ensure the treats hold their shape when sliced. A loose mix can lead to crumbly bites.

  • Use Parchment Paper: Lining the tin with baking paper makes removal easy and prevents sticking. Don’t skip this step for pristine squares!

  • Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to incorporate mix-ins, such as nuts or dried fruits, to make your Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats uniquely yours.

Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats Variations

Feel free to bring your personal touch to these delightful treats—let your creativity shine!

  • Nut-Free: Swap out the Biscoff spread for sunflower seed butter or a nut-free cookie spread to accommodate allergies.

  • Extra Crunchy: Consider adding a handful of chopped nuts, like almonds or walnuts, into the mixture before packing it into the tin. This will provide a delightful texture that complements the crispy Rice Krispies.

  • Chocolate Delight: Drizzle melted dark chocolate over the top for an added layer of richness. The bittersweet chocolate pairs beautifully with the sweet notes of Biscoff—an indulgent upgrade!

  • Fruit & Nut Fusion: Stir in some dried cranberries or cherries along with nuts for a sweet-tart twist. This variation not only enhances the flavor but also introduces a lovely chewiness.

  • Peanut Butter Swirl: Mix in a spoonful of creamy peanut butter into the melted Biscoff spread for that perfect sweet and salty combination. The creaminess takes the texture to the next level!

  • White Chocolate Crunch: Instead of regular white chocolate, use peppermint-flavored white chocolate as a festive touch. It gives a seasonal twist, perfect for holiday gatherings.

  • Cookie Crust: For a richer base, replace 50% of the Rice Krispies with crushed cookies (like graham crackers) for added flavor and a bit of decadence. The crunch will surprise everyone!

  • Mini Bites: For portion control, press the mixture into mini muffin tins instead to create bite-sized squares. These are perfect for kids’ parties or little snack attacks—much like my Beetlejuice Mini Trifles!

Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats Recipe FAQs

What should I look for when selecting Biscoff spread?
Absolutely! When choosing Lotus Biscoff spread, look for a smooth, creamy consistency without separation. The color should be a rich caramel hue, and it should have a sweet, spiced aroma. Avoid jars with any signs of dark spots or a runny texture.

How should I store leftover Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats?
To maintain their delightful crunch and chewy texture, store your Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days. If you want to extend their freshness, place them in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, making sure they are well-wrapped to avoid absorbing moisture.

Can I freeze Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats, and if so, how?
Very! To freeze your Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats, follow these steps:

  1. Wrap each treat individually in plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn.
  2. Place the wrapped treats in a freezer-safe bag or airtight container.
  3. Freeze for up to 3 months.
    When ready to enjoy, let the treats thaw at room temperature for 1-2 hours; they’ll be just as delicious as when you made them!

What if my Rice Krispie mixture is too crumbly?
If your mixture feels crumbly, it might be because it wasn’t packed tightly enough in the tin. To fix this, try pressing the mixture down with your hands (remember to butter them first!) to compact it firmly. This ensures a better hold and prevents the treats from falling apart when sliced.

Are there any dietary considerations for Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats?
Yes, indeed! The main concerns would include allergies to nuts or gluten, as some versions of Biscoff may be processed in facilities that handle these allergens. If you’re making these treats for guests with dietary restrictions, opt for certified gluten-free Rice Krispies and double-check the ingredients on your Biscoff spread. Additionally, consider substituting with allergy-friendly ingredients like dairy-free butter or chocolate if needed.

Can I use a different type of spread in the recipe?
Very! While Lotus Biscoff spread gives a unique flavor, feel free to swap it for other spreads like Nutella or peanut butter. Just be aware that each spread will add its own distinct taste and texture to the treats, allowing for delightful variations every time you make them!
