Root Beer Float Rice Crispy Treats

Rice crispy treats are the perfect treat for a hot summer day. Add a hint of root beer for an extra special summertime party!
 
Root Beer Float Rice Crispy Treats
1/4 c. (1/2 stick) butter
8 c. miniature marshmallows
1 t. root beer extract
5 c. crispy rice cereal
1 c. white chocolate bark (or white chocolate chips), melted
1/2 c. toffee bits

 
In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in marshmallows and heat until melted. Remove from heat and stir in root beer extract.
Stir in crispy rice cereal.
Press into a greased 9x13" pan.
Drizzle with melted white chocolate.
Sprinkle toffee bits on top.
Cool completely before cutting into bars.

A whole new world opens up when adding flavors to rice crispy treats. I'm quite excited about trying lots of other flavors too. Enjoy!

    1. I know, right? My daughter picked the root beer flavor and I thought, 'Why not?' Turned out to be a great decision! :)
