Prepare a 9x13-inch baking pan by spraying it lightly with non-stick cooking spray or lining it with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat.
Add the mini marshmallows to the melted butter and stir constantly with a heatproof spatula until completely melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
Pour the rice bubbles into the saucepan and gently fold them into the marshmallow mixture until the cereal is fully coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan and press it down evenly using a spatula or clean, lightly greased hands.
Allow the slice to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Once set, cut it into 12 even squares or rectangles and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
