Rochelle's Double Dipped Rice Krispy Treats

Finally! And by reader demand :) Here is the super easy recipe for these awesome treats:
  • DOUBLE the recipe on the side of the Kellog's Rice Krispies box, EXCEPT...
  • use 2 entire bags of regular size marshmallows, and...
  • use only 10 cups of Rice Krispies (instead of the 12 a double recipe would call for)
  • put the entire double recipe into a 9x13 pan, and condense them till even 
  • melt approx. 1 lb. of bulk carmel (I used the microwave, stirring frequently)
  • pour carmel on top of Rice Krispies and wait until everything is completely cool
When the pan is entirely cool, cut the Rice Krispie treats into squares. *taking the entire slab out of the pan and using a large, non-serrated knife makes them much easier to cut. I cut these pretty small - you want them kind of bite size, maybe a bit bigger. I think I ended up with approximately 42 squares. That's approximate, because my family descended upon them like a freaking pack of wolves before I could count them.
More fun a-comin! Melt your chocolate chips (again, I used my microwave, stirring frequently). I used about 1 and 1/2 bags of chips. And just on a whim, I used Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips. OH. MY. GOSH. It was amazing. Seriously, I had no idea. A-MAZ-ING.
This part is the most fun :) Just dip the bottom 1/3 of your squares in that lucius chocolate, and place the squares on wax paper. Pretty soon you'll have an astonishing army of double dipped Rice Krispy treats. Oh my.
I just need to warn you that these are seriously delicious. Seriously delicious. There's a lot of flavor packed into those little marshmallowy, carmely, chocolaty squares! YUM. Yum infinity.
And you'd better watch out, because they will receive all kinds of attention :)
