Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Puffed rice cereal (e.g., Rice Krispies)
- 10 ounces Mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 as needed Cooking spray (nonstick)
Instructions
Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
In a large, nonstick pot, add the mini marshmallows and place over low heat.
Stir the marshmallows continuously until completely melted, about 3-5 minutes.
Once the marshmallows are fully melted, remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Gently fold the puffed rice cereal into the melted marshmallows, working quickly to coat all the cereal evenly.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Using a spatula lightly sprayed with cooking spray, gently press the mixture into an even layer.
Let the treats cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, or until firm.
Cut into 12 equal squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
