Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups mini marshmallows
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup holiday sprinkles
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing it with non-stick spray or butter. Set aside.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter completely.
Add the light brown sugar to the saucepan and stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and starts to bubble gently, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Stir in the vanilla extract and mini marshmallows, mixing until the marshmallows are fully melted and incorporated, creating a smooth mixture.
Quickly fold in the crispy rice cereal, stirring until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture. Work quickly, as the mixture will start to cool and set.
Transfer the rice crispy mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it evenly into the dish using a spatula or lightly greased hands.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.
Drizzle or spread the melted chocolate evenly over the rice crispy layer in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the holiday sprinkles and sea salt evenly over the chocolate layer while it is still warm.
Let the treats cool completely at room temperature, or place the dish in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to set the chocolate faster.
Once fully set, lift the treats out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 12 even squares or rectangles.
Serve and enjoy your festive Holiday Rice Crispy Toffee Treats!
