Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rice Krispies
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Swap sharp cheddar for mild for kids, or use smoked cheddar for more depth.
  • 1/4 cup butter Use salted butter if you forget to measure salt, just skip added salt.
  • 1/4 cup flour For a gluten-free option, replace with a 1-to-1 gluten-free flour blend.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large bowl, combine Rice Krispies, cheddar cheese, flour, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Melt the butter and add it to the dry mixture, mixing well.
  • Gradually add water until the mixture is well combined.
  • Spread the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Baking

  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  • Allow to cool before breaking into pieces and serving.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for up to a week, or freeze for longer. To re-crisp, pop them in a 300 degree oven for five minutes. Double the recipe and bake on two sheets, rotating halfway for batch cooking.
