Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats Recipe 🍫🍪🍚 With Cocoa Powder and Chocolate Chips 😀

My chocolate rice krispie treats recipe is easy and delicious! By adding unsweetened cocoa powder and chocolate chips--along with a secret ingredient--to a normal rice krispies treats recipe, you can make a fantastic dessert that's special because of both the flavors and textures. The chocolate is rich, the cereal crispy, and the marshmallows chewy, all 3 coming together to make a great combination of textures that is sure to remind people in the USA of a Nestle crunch bar. The cocoa powder and semi-sweet chocolate chips definitely gives these treats a dark chocolate flavor, so if you aren't a super fan of dark chocolate, you can substitute milk chocolate chips for the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Honestly, these were very good, so if you're looking for a chocolate no bake cookie recipe for Christmas, or any time of the year, give this recipe a try.
Honestly, these chocolate rice krispie treats were amazing. Because there were three types of chocolate (cocoa powder, melted chocolate chips, and partially melted chocolate chips), these crispy treats had a depth of chocolate flavor that very few things do. If you're a chocoholic, you'll love these.
Although I knew the teaspoon of instant coffee is controversial, it's the secret ingredient in these, and I highly recommend it--it really helps to intensify the chocolate flavor. However, if you absolutely hate coffee, you can add 1 teaspoon of molasses.
These treats definitely had a dark chocolate taste. I made these for a group of people, and everyone loves them--even those who don't normally like dark chocolate. However, if you're hesitant to make this recipe because it might be too dark, I recommend using milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. Actually, I plan on trying the recipe that way at some point.
As stated earlier, I really liked the texture, too. When I first tried these, I thought that these no bake chocolate rice krispie treats reminded me of something, but I couldn't quite put me finger on what it was...but then it came to me: a Nestle Crunch bar!!! If you like Nestle crunch bars--a dark chocolate version--then you will like the texture of these treats.
Like I said, my chocolate rice krispie treats recipe was a big success. If you're looking for something unique for the holidays, these no bake cookies would be perfect. And even if it's not Christmas, these are so good, that they would be perfect at any time of the year.🍫🍪🍚😀

Hi Parnell, We now have two delicious n fun treats esp for the kids. ( last week)These are going to be a hit with the adults too. I think I like your suggestion of milk chocolate chips. I think two pans will work with my family. They’ll love bringing home goodies to eat the next day after Christmas. I would use coffee in both….one dark or semi sweet and the other milk chocolate. Another winner. Thanks a million Parnell. You keep coming up with awesome ideas for desserts etc. Have a fantastic and blessed week. They look wonderful to me Love dark chocolate. Omg.using cocoa krispies is another great idea. I think I’ll have a lot of fun with these recipes. Can’t wait until next week. 😊

[@ParnellTheChef]

Hi, Kathy! Yes, if you do make two versions, one with dark chocolate and the oven milk chocolate chips, please let me know which one you and your family like more. I think that making enough for people to snack on the day after Christmas would be very nice, especially for the kids (and those adults who are kids at heart, haha). Thanks for watching and commenting as always! 🍫🍪🍚

[@GolosinasArgentinas]

Looks good, thanks for the recipe!

[@CookingwithAnadi]

[@SarasBites]

[@tonythefoodie]

[@DebrasDeliciousDishes]

Oooh Parnell this looks delicious

[@VocallyYours3]

Funny I don’t like many chocolate products but I do love these morsel’s!!👌🏽

[@ParnellTheChef]

Even if you aren't big on chocolate, I think you would like these. They are super delicious! 👍🍫

[@gregorycook3550]

You had me at "chocolate". 😋🍫

[@ParnellTheChef]

Haha if you like chocolate, you'll love these, for sure! 🍫 🍫 🍫

[@CookingSecretsForMen]

I wonder if you substituted Cocoa crispies it would be even more chocolatie

[@carolsparks7070]

They look delicious. I made peanut butter ones recently - what if you mixed with chocolate? Mmm

[@carolsparks7070]

I think using cocoa krispies won’t work as well, they aren’t a sturdy as the Rice Krispies in my mind, nor very chocolately

[@ParnellTheChef]

I think you could definitely add peanut butter to these--that's a great idea, actually! 🍫😀

[@ParnellTheChef]

That's a good point. I agree that using chocolate puffed rice cereal wouldn't be the same as adding in chocolate like I did. 🍫👨‍🍳
