    Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Squares

    Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Squares with a dash of sea salt makes a childhood treat feel extra fancy!  Happy February everyone!  We made it through a month that felt like a year and I am proud to say that my new year officially starts now.  January is always a month with so many expectations and I just can't deal with all that pressure, so I let it all go from the beginning.  I gave my self time to ease into the new year and remove all expectations.  I am excited for February, mainly because I love Valentines day and all that comes with it (really all the chocolate that comes with it).  But truly, it is a "sweet" holiday and one that gives us all the reasons to show the people we love, a little extra love!

    I am excited to start this month off with one of my favorites…Chocolate Caramel Rice Krispie Squares with a dash of sea salt.  Rice Krispies Squares always  get such little praise, but usually are the first to go at every dessert table that I put them on.  They are a childhood treat that grown ups should enjoy as well and chocolate and caramel are the perfect addition.
