I had a hard time making these. The Rice Krispie\/marshmallow part was not too bad, although very sticky and messy to mold.i could not get the caramels to a good consistency to spread. My package (Werther\u2019s chewy caramels) did not have melting directions. I finally added a bit of water, but it still did not spread well. Will not be making these again, not worth the trouble.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":2,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"261570","romance_copy_dek":"Ooey, gooey caramel meets your favorite crisped rice treat in this caramel apple Rice Krispies Treat recipe. \u2014Taste Recipes<\/i> Test Kitchen","enhanced_recipe_title":"Caramel Apple Rice Krispies Treats","rms_legacy_data":{"RecipeCategories":null,"Ingredients":[{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1 package (10 ounces) miniature marshmallows","IngredientText":"1 package (10 ounces) miniature marshmallows"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"3 tablespoons canola oil","IngredientText":"3 tablespoons canola oil"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"5 cups Rice Krispies","IngredientText":"5 cups Rice Krispies"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1 cup dried apples, chopped","IngredientText":"1 cup dried apples, chopped"},{"CampaignId":"","IsBrandedIngredient":false,"Ingredient":"1 package (11 ounces) caramels","IngredientText":"1 package (11 ounces) caramels"}],"FeaturedImage":"https:\/\/tmbidigitalassetsazure.blob.core.windows.net\/rms3-prod\/attachments\/37\/1200x1200\/Caramel-Apple-Rice-Krispies-Treats_EXPS_BBZ22_261570_P3_MD_06_23_4b.jpg","RecipeId":261570,"AttachmentSourceId":null,"AttachmentSource":"Taste Recipes","PhotoCredit":"Caramel Apple Rice Krispies Treats Recipe photo by Taste Recipes","VideoCode":null,"RecipeAttachmentFileName":"Caramel-Apple-Rice-Krispies-Treats_EXPS_BBZ22_261570_P3_MD_06_23_4b.jpg","ContributorId":null,"Firstname":"Taste Recipes","Lastname":"Test Kitchen","City":"Milwaukee","StateDescription":"Wisconsin","IsCommunityCook":false,"TimeCallout":"Prep: 20 + cooling","MinimumServingQuantity":12,"MaximumServingQuantity":12,"Yield":"1 dozen.","DigitalTitle":"Caramel Apple Rice Krispies Treats","SubmittedTitle":"Caramel Apple Krispie Treats","RecipeTypeId":1,"AverageRating":2,"WebPublishedDate":"4\/15\/2021 6:46:01 AM","ContestPlacementId":null,"FbImage":"FB_TOHAS21_261570_B04_09_2b.jpg","PreparationTimeInMinutes":10,"CookTimeInMinutes":10,"TotalTimeInMinutes":20,"ServingDescription":null,"IsTestKitchenCertified":true,"IsContestWinner":false,"IsCommunityRecipe":false,"PublishedProjectTitle":"Caramel Apple Krispies Treats","OriginalSourceProject":"Caramel Apple Krispies Treats","ContestPlacement":"","Trailer":null,"Metadescription":null,"DigitalHeadnotes":"Ooey, gooey caramel meets your favorite crisped rice treat in this whimsical fall recipe. \u2014Taste Recipes<\/i> Test Kitchen ","FreezerDirections":"","FreezerDirectionsTitle":"","HTMLTitle":"Caramel Apple Rice Krispies Treat Recipe","RecipeVersionNumber":null,"WorkflowStatusId":9,"Directions":[{"Direction":"In a microwave or a large saucepan over low heat, melt marshmallows in oil; stir until smooth.
