Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Gluten-free crispy rice cereal
- 10 ounces Mini marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.
In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, stirring frequently to avoid browning.
Once the butter is fully melted, add the 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows to the saucepan.
Continue to stir the marshmallows over low heat until they are completely melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in 6 cups of gluten-free crispy rice cereal until all the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Immediately transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, gently pressing it evenly into the dish with a greased spatula or wax paper to avoid sticking.
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, ensuring they set properly.
Once cooled, cut the treats into squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
