Vanilla extract adds that something extra to these Perfect Rice Krispie Treats! By adding a little bit of vanilla to this recipe, it will enhance all the other flavors in this treat, making it the silent star. I always use pure vanilla extract. It’s expensive, I know, but it makes a huge difference in flavor when it comes to baking. I can pick out imitation vanilla immediately because of its chemical taste. So spend the extra money, it’s worth it.
