Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Crunchy Base
In a large bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal, graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and sugar. Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 2: Add the Butter
Pour the melted butter over the dry ingredients and mix until everything is thoroughly coated and resembles moist crumbs.
Step 3: Form the Base Layer
Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving extra paper over the edges for easy removal later. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to create an even layer.
Step 4: Make the Caramel
Place the sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously as it melts and gradually turns a deep golden amber color.
Helpful Tip: Keep a close eye on the sugar once it begins to melt, as it can quickly go from perfectly caramelized to burnt.
Step 5: Add the Butter
Carefully stir the cubed butter into the caramelized sugar. Continue whisking until the mixture becomes smooth and fully combined.
