Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10 ounces mini marshmallows
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over low heat.
Once the butter has melted, add the mini marshmallows to the pot. Stir continuously with a spatula until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
If using vanilla extract, stir it into the marshmallow mixture until fully combined.
Remove the pot from the heat and immediately add the Rice Krispies cereal. Stir gently but quickly to coat the cereal evenly with the melted marshmallow mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Using a buttered spatula or clean hands lightly greased with butter, press the mixture firmly and evenly into the dish.
Allow the Rice Krispies treats to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, or until fully set.
Cut into 12 squares or desired shapes and sizes. Serve and enjoy!
