Delicious and sweet! Milky Way meets Rice Krispies! ‘Like Wow!’ Easy to make and tasty too! Chocolate, caramel, nougat, marshmallow and rice krispies. Do I need to repeat? 🙂
In case you need a refresh, the “Milky Way” bar is a chocolate bar made of chocolate-malt nougat topped with caramel and covered with milk chocolate and has been around since 1923 introduced by Mars, Inc. ‘Like Wow’, right?
I can’t begin to tell you how many of these candy bars I’ve eaten throughout my life, but it’s a pretty high number! Hey!! I’m a confessed ‘Chocoholic’…so of course I’m addicted to everything that has chocolate involved.
So, a week ago or so, I wanted to make some rice krispie treats for the weekend. With kids coming and going, it’s always so nice and reassuring to have some home-made rice krispie treats around, don’t you think?
You shouldn’t have a problem making these pretty quickly as they are pretty easy to make, plus they taste amazing!
So, these Milky Ways met the Rice Krispies and voila! Milky Way {Like Wow} Rice Krispies were born. *Yahooing and clapping hands*
In other words, Rice Krispies stuffed with chunks of Milky Ways and topped off with a chocolate drizzle and more Milky Ways are ready for munching and bringing smiles to all. Because, let’s face it, pretty much everyone loves rice krispie treats.
These Milky Way Rice Krispies are out of this world, like the spectacular Milky Way we have in our galaxy!!! You’ll understand once you taste them! Make these sweet treats for your kiddos and the big kiddos too! You’ll get the big “Like Wow!”

Next time, I'm adding the Caramel Drizzle too! 🙂 Enjoy!!
We are huge Milky Way fans over here! Totally have to make this!
Thank you Bakuman! Who could resist more marshmallow and rice krispies! YUM! <3 Happy Friday!!
 It adds a depth of flavor to the rice krispie treats and definitely elevates them to another level. Stir in RICE KRISPIES cereal. Remove from heat and add remaining 2 cups of marshmallows and rice krispies ceral.
mmmm that chocolate drizzle! i won’t turn down a storebought rice krispie treat, but the homemade ones taste so much better (like basically everything in life). there’s something about the storebought ones that taste really checmically to me.
Oh my word, can we just come and live in your kitchen?! These look AMAZING. And I love that you put less Rice Krispies in to make them more marshmallowy! Plus the Milky Way, I’m just drooling over here 😀
I love rice krispies! Adding marshmallows and these milky way candies to them is Like WOW :). Yummy treats Kim!
I love rice krispies (well, who doesn’t?) and incorporating a candy bar into it is just brilliant. Absolutely decadent!!! My kids might eat the entire batch in one sitting:)
I don’t even need to taste them to know they’re ‘Like Wow!’…. But I will – just to be sure! 😉 YUM!!
Yum! These look so heavenly! It’s a good thing I don’t have any now because I would have to eat a couple bars for breakfast! Thanks for another great recipe, Kim! ☺
You’ve outdone yourself here! Rice Krispie treats count as breakfast right? Because after looking at these pics yogurt just isn’t going to cut it this morning 🙂
