Notes
Heat Treated*
To heat-treat it, just pop the mix into a microwave-safe bowl and warm it up in 30-second bursts, stirring in between, until it hits 160°F. If you’d rather use the oven, spread a thin layer on a baking sheet and bake it at 300°F for about 10 minutes, or until it reaches that same temperature.
Storage: You can store the Viral Sugar Cookie Rice Krispies Treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Place parchment paper between the layers to prevent sticking. It’s not recommended to refrigerate the treats, as this can make them hard. For longer storage,
individually wrap the squares tightly in plastic wrap, place them in a freezer-safe bag, and freeze for up to 6 weeks. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
