How to Make Caramel Krispies Bars

  1. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted margarine.
  2. Add 4 cups (10 oz bag) mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and gently stir in 4 cups (10 oz bag) Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.
  4. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
  5. Press half of the Rice Krispies mixture into the prepared pan to form an even layer.
  6. In a separate saucepan over low heat, melt 14 oz caramels, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted margarine, and 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, stirring constantly until smooth.
  7. Pour the melted caramel mixture evenly over the Rice Krispies layer in the pan.
  8. Repeat steps 1-3 to make a second Rice Krispies layer.
  9. Spread the second Rice Krispies layer over the caramel layer.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30-40 minutes to allow the bars to set completely before cutting and serving.
