Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 10 cups mini marshmallows
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
Add 5 cups of mini marshmallows to the pot and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth.
Remove the pot from heat and immediately fold in 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Mix until the cereal is fully coated in marshmallow.
Press the marshmallow-cereal mixture evenly into the prepared 9x13-inch baking dish. Use a sheet of wax paper or greased hands to press it down firmly. Set aside to cool.
In a medium saucepan, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup of light corn syrup, and the can of sweetened condensed milk to the saucepan. Stir constantly to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the caramel thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt.
Allow the caramel to cool slightly for about 2-3 minutes, then pour it evenly over the cooled marshmallow layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 5 cups of mini marshmallows over the caramel layer, pressing them gently to adhere.
Let the entire dish cool at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until the caramel has set.
Once cooled and set, slice the treats into 12 equal squares and serve.
