FAQ
1. Line your pan with parchment paper and grease the parchment paper with cooking spray or a neutral oil. This will ensure the rice krispie treats don't stick to the paper or pan!
2. Once you have fully mixed in all of your add-ins, quickly transfer the mixture to the baking pan. If you wait too long, it becomes too sticky and difficult to work with.
3. Use a ⅓ measuring cup or small glass to flatten the rise krispie treats out into the square pan.
4. Allow them to set at room temperature for at least one hour before cutting.
5. Use a very sharp knife and grease it lightly for easy, clean cuts.
The best part about homemade rice krispie treats is that they are fully customizable so you can add all of your favorite add-ins! Use a your favorite cereal, add in different chocolate candies, or leave plain!

Baking in grams
All of the recipes on this blog are carefully developed to create incredibly delicious baked goods that you can easily recreate in your own kitchen with success. The only way this is possible is to standardize the way ingredients are measured - by weight. Volume measurements are extremely inaccurate and leave room for significant errors. Not all measuring cups are made equally, so your one cup of flour will be different from my one cup of flour. By providing precise measurements in grams (aside from minor ingredients, which are given in tsp/tbsp), I can ensure that you can make the recipe accurately and with less cleanup! All you need is this kitchen scale.
If this still isn't enough to convince you, I have provided volume measurements in the recipe card. If you are interested in understanding the conversions, this is the best conversion chart.
But trust me, once you try baking in grams you'll never turn back!
