Taking a bite out of a Rice Krispies treat likely makes you nostalgic for the simple days when you were a kid, and the recipe for making your own treats is just as simple. All you need are marshmallows, crispy rice cereal, butter, vanilla, and salt — and a way to keep the mixture from sticking to your hands.

TikTok user crazyforcrust has revealed their hack for keeping your hands clean during the Rice Krispies treat-making process. Once you unwrap your stick of butter for use, don't throw the paper wrapper, instead use the inside of the wrapper to pat your finished marshmallow and cereal mixture down into a pan before letting it set.

This hack lets you press your Rice Krispies mixture into an even layer, without getting sticky cereal all over your hands. However, if you accidentally throw out your butter wrapper, other TikTokers shared in the comments that a spatula covered in nonstick cooking spray also works to press your mixture into the pan.
