How to Make Gluten Free Better Than Rice Krispies Treats

  1. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt margarine in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring halfway through. (If not using a microwave, melt margarine in a saucepan over low heat).
  3. Stir in the gluten-free butterscotch chips until melted and combined.
  4. Add the marshmallows to the melted margarine and butterscotch mixture.
  5. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until marshmallows are completely melted and smooth (about 1-3 minutes total, depending on microwave power). Stir gently to avoid splattering.
  6. In a separate large bowl, combine the gluten-free Rice Chex cereal.
  7. Gently pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the Rice Chex cereal.
  8. Stir until the cereal is evenly coated.
  9. Pour the mixture into the prepared 9x13 inch pan.
  10. Lightly grease your hands with cooking spray or butter and press the mixture evenly into the pan.
  11. Let cool completely at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  12. Cut into squares and enjoy! Store leftover treats in an airtight container at room temperature.
