How To Store Krispie Treats
Rice Krispie treats are always best when eaten within the first day or two. However, if stored properly, they will stay tasty for up to four days on the counter.
Make sure to let them cool fully and then wrap the serving dish in plastic wrap, or place the Krispie treats in an airtight container and leave them at room temperature.
You can store them in the fridge for a few days longer, but know that they will harden up a bit.
Of course, you can freeze them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months and take them out when needed. To do this, wrap each square in plastic before placing them all into the bag.
