Why Are My Rice Krispie Treats Hard?

 

If your Rice Krispie Treats are hard as soon as you are done making them, then there are a couple of things you can do to avoid this happening in the future.

 

Rice Krispie Treats often turn out hard from using stale marshmallows. Always use new fresh marshmallows when you make Rice Krispie Treats.

 

It’s also very important to measure carefully when preparing this recipe. If you accidently add a little too many Rice Krispies that will also make them turn out hard. 

 

When you are melting the marshmallows, melt them over low heat or you will end up having to learn how to remove burnt marshmallows from your pan (ask me how I know). Melting the marshmallows over low heat will also help keep your Rice Krispie Treats from getting hard.
