I have made these for all kinds of potlucks and social gatherings since coming up with the recipe. I just love to make them. They are almost as simple as the original. They are always a huge hit too among the crowd. I never have to worry about coming home with anything extra. Like with normal Rice Krispie treats, these are always one of the very first things to disappear off of the table. Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at Spend With Pennies:
“These Turtle Rice Krispie Treats are extra amazing topped with a delicious gooey caramel topping, pecans and finally drizzled with a thick chocolate ganache”
Extra amazing is right! And super simple too!
Ingredients
¼ cup Land O’ Lakes butter
7 cups Kraft mini Marshmallows, divided
7 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1⅓ cups pecans, divided
1 cup Nestle Toll House semi sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup heavy cream
5.5 oz caramel bits (or 5.5 oz caramels unwrapped)
2½ tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
Melt butter and 6 cups of mini marshmallows over medium low heat until smooth.
Stir in Rice Krispies, ⅓ cup pecans and 1 cup of marshmallows (unmelted). Press into a well greased 9×13 pan (or slightly smaller if you prefer a thicker Rice Krispie).
Melt caramel bits and 2½ tablespoons heavy cream in the microwave for 60-90 seconds (stirring every 30 seconds) until smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine ¼ cup heavy cream and chocolate chips. Microwave at 50% power for 90 seconds (stirring every 30 seconds) until smooth.
Drizzle ½ of the caramel and ½ of the chocolate over the Krispies. Top with pecans. Drizzle remaining caramel and chocolate. Cool completely.
Cut into squares and serve
