What am I doing mistaken with my rice Krispies? : AskCulinary

The ratio has to be exact. I’m guessing you’re probably adding in too many rice krispies.

I prefer mine softer so I add more butter, the pkg of marshmallows and half a cup less cereal than it calls for in the original recipe. Initially its light and falls apart like candy floss but it becomes firm and chewy the next day.
