Caramel and sea salt take good old Rice Krispie bars from good to great. Plus, who doesn't love a treat on a stick?
Things You'll Need

3 tablespoons butter
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
Lollipop sticks
Sea salt
Unwrap the caramel candies and place in a small saucepan.

Video of the Day
Add 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal and stir to combine.
Pour caramel sauce over Krispies mixture, reserving about 1/4 cup. Stir gently to distribute the caramel sauce throughout the Krispies without mixing it in completely.
Pour Krispies mixture into a buttered 9 x 13-inch pan and press lightly. Allow to cool, then use a biscuit cutter or cookie cutter to cut circles.
Tip
To avoid waste, warm the Krispie scraps in the microwave and press them together. Cut more circles from the reformed scraps.
Press a lollipop stick into each Krispie circle.
Place the Krispie pops on a cooling rack set over a sheet of parchment paper. Drizzle caramel sauce over each pop.
Sprinkle sea salt onto the warm caramel sauce.
Cool to room temperature and serve.
