• total time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients

▢ 10 oz mini marshmallows (6 cups)

▢ ¼ cup salted butter

▢ 5½ cups Crispy Rice Cereal

▢ ½ teaspoon sea salt

▢ ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

Grease a 8x8” or 9x9" square pan, set aside.

Melt butter in a large, deep sauce pot (5 quarts) over low heat.

Once butter is mostly melted, add marshmallows and stir until smooth (this takes about 3-6 minutes).

Once butter/marshmallow mixture is smooth remove the pan from the heat, add vanilla extract and stir to combine.

Add crispy rice cereal and sea salt to the large pot with the marshmallow mixture and mix until combined. (If desired, at this point you can add mix-ins like sprinkles M&Ms, etc.)

Quickly pour the rice crispy treat mixture into the prepared pan.

Use a greased spatula or greased hands to gently press the rice crispy treat mixture into the pan until the top is level.

If desired, at this point you can add sprinkles, chocolate chips, etc. to the top. Just be sure to gently press them onto the top of the rice crispy treats.

Allow the rice crispy treats to sit at room temperature until cooled, about 1 hour.

Cut into 9 or 16 squares and serve!
