What You Need for Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
You do not need fancy tools. Gather a large saucepan, a heat-proof spatula or wooden spoon, a 9×13 inch pan (or similar), and something to grease the pan (butter or non-stick spray). A bowl for crushing the cookies helps, or you can put them in a bag and press with a rolling pin. Work on low heat to melt the marshmallows slowly so they do not scorch. If you want cleaner edges, line your pan with parchment paper and press the mixture in with a piece of wax paper or lightly greased hands.
How to Make Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
Start by melting the butter over low heat in your large saucepan. Add the marshmallows and stir until they melt smooth. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the Biscoff cookie spread until it blends into the melted marshmallows. Add the Rice Krispies cereal and the crushed Biscoff cookies. Mix until the cereal is fully coated and the cookies are well mixed in. Press the mix into a greased 9×13 inch pan and let it cool. Once cool, cut into squares and serve.
These steps are simple and quick. Work while the mixture is still warm, as the marshmallow sets fast. If the mix cools and hardens, warm it very briefly in the microwave or on low heat to soften, then press again. For a firmer bar, press tightly into the pan; for a lighter, more airy treat, press gently.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 cup Biscoff cookie spread
- 1 cup Biscoff cookies, crushed
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 package (10 oz) marshmallows
Directions:
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
- Remove from heat and stir in the Biscoff cookie spread until well combined.
- Add the Rice Krispies and crushed Biscoff cookies, mixing until evenly coated.
- Press the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch pan.
- Allow to cool, then cut into squares and serve.
Follow the directions exactly and move quickly when you add the cereal so the marshmallow does not set before you mix it in.
Best Ways to Serve Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
Serve these treats at room temperature for the best texture. They go well on a dessert tray with other small sweets or alongside coffee and tea. For a party, cut them into small bite-size squares so guests can nibble without plates. You can also warm a square for a few seconds in the microwave to make it softer—this can be a nice treat with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. If you want a pretty look, drizzle melted white chocolate over the top or sprinkle extra crushed Biscoff cookies before the bars cool.
For a balanced snack plate, serve them with fresh fruit or a small handful of nuts. If you are serving children, put the bars on a colorful plate or cut them into fun shapes using cookie cutters. For a morning twist, pair a small bar with yogurt and fruit for a simple treat box.

How to Store Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
Store the treats in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for about 3 to 4 days. If you want them softer, add a slice of bread to the container; the bread gives a bit of moisture and keeps the bars chewy. For longer storage, you can wrap single squares in plastic wrap and freeze them for up to a month. Thaw at room temperature for 30–60 minutes before eating.
If humidity is high where you live, store the container in a cool, dry place to keep the texture right. Avoid the fridge unless you like a firmer treat; refrigeration tends to harden the marshmallow mixture and changes the mouthfeel.
Easy Tips to Make Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
- Use low heat: Melt the butter and marshmallows on low heat so they do not burn. Burnt marshmallows change the flavor and texture.
- Grease well: Grease the pan or use parchment so bars release cleanly.
- Press evenly: Use a sheet of wax paper to press the mixture into the pan for smooth, even bars.
- Crush cookies by hand: Put the Biscoff cookies in a bag and crush with a rolling pin for small, crunchy bits rather than fine crumbs.
- Work fast: Once mixed, marshmallow sets quickly. Mix the cereal in right away and press into the pan before it cools.
- Warm gently to rework: If the mixture cools while you work, warm it in short bursts in the microwave to soften.
- Add a flavor twist: Stir a pinch of salt if you like contrast, or add a touch of vanilla for extra depth.
Try These Variations of Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
- Chocolate drizzle: Melt dark or white chocolate and drizzle over the cooled bars.
- Nut twist: Add chopped almonds or hazelnuts for crunch.
- Browned butter mix: Brown the butter before melting the marshmallows for a nutty, deep flavor.
- Mini version: Press into a muffin tin for single-serve cups.
- Layered bars: Make a thin chocolate layer on the bottom or top for a two-layer treat.
- Pet-friendly idea: If you make a safe treat for dogs, look for recipes like soft peanut butter carrot dog treats that suit pets, but do not feed your Biscoff bars to dogs since Biscoff and marshmallows are not pet-safe.
Each variation keeps the simple base and adds a small change to make a new flavor.

Common Questions About Biscoff Rice Krispie Treats
Q: Can I use another cookie butter instead of Biscoff?
A: Yes. Any cookie butter with a similar texture and taste will work. The flavor will change slightly, but the method stays the same.
Q: Can I make these gluten-free?
A: Use gluten-free Rice Krispies (or a similar puffed rice cereal) and check that the Biscoff cookie spread and cookies are gluten-free. Many Biscoff products contain wheat, so choose certified gluten-free alternatives.
Q: How do I get clean cuts?
A: Let the bars cool completely, then use a sharp knife. For neat edges, chill the pan briefly, then cut with a knife warmed under hot water and wiped dry between cuts.
Q: Can I double the recipe?
A: Yes. Use a larger pan or two pans. Keep the ratios the same to retain texture.
Q: Can I add chocolate chips?
A: You can, but add them after the mix cools slightly to avoid melting them into the marshmallow completely. Small chips hold up best.
