Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Salted Brown Butter Rice Krispie Treats.

1. Step 1

   Start by melting butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

2. Step 2

   Keep stirring it constantly until it transforms into a beautiful golden brown and releases a delightful nutty aroma—this should take about five minutes.

3. Step 3

   Once your butter is perfectly browned, toss in the miniature marshmallows.

4. Step 4

   Lower the heat to medium-low and stir occasionally until the marshmallows melt completely, which will take around three to four minutes.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to add a splash of bourbon and a teaspoon of sea salt to the gooey marshmallow mixture, then take the saucepan off the heat.

6. Step 6

   Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal, making sure every piece is coated in that luscious marshmallow goodness.

7. Step 7

   Next, transfer this sticky mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish.

8. Step 8

   To ensure it’s evenly pressed down, place a sheet of parchment paper over the top and gently press it into the dish.

9. Step 9

   Once it’s nicely compacted, remove the parchment paper and sprinkle a pinch of flaked sea salt over the treats for that perfect finishing touch.

10. Step 10

    Let your delicious creation cool to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cutting it into squares.
