Nutella Banana Rice Krispie Treats
Rice Krispie treats are an easy and delicious way to play with flavor combinations. I knew I wanted to use Nutella, and I love the combination of banana and Nutella, so this idea was born. The only thing I needed to figure out was how to incorporate the bananas. I assumed fresh bananas would add too much moisture, but I wanted that fresh taste. I decided to use banana chips, and it turned out great! If you are a fan of the banana/Nutella flavor combination, you need to try these!
Quick & Easy Preparation
These Rice Krispie treats come together in a few easy steps:
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Add marshmallows to the pot and melt over medium heat, stirring often. Add vanilla extract and salt once the marshmallows have fully melted.

Remove the pot from the heat and stir in Rice Krispies and crushed banana chips. You can crush the banana chips to your preferred texture. I left some bigger pieces in mine, but finely crushed banana chips will work great as well.
Fold in the Nutella, mixing until evenly distributed.
Chill, Cut, and Enjoy!
Spread the Rice Krispie mixture into a greased 9x13 inch pan and press down to ensure an even thickness. Transfer to the refrigerator and let the Rice Krispie treats cool completely before cutting.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
