Ingredients
Scale
12 oz Rice Krispies Cereal (12 Cups)
4 oz Butter (1/2 Cup or 1 stick)
16 oz Marshmallows (1– 16 oz bag)
Instructions
- Prep Ingredients: Weigh marshmallows and Rice Krispies in separate containers. Prepare a large pot for mixing.
- Melt Butter: In the large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Use a pot with a thick base for even heat distribution.
- Add Marshmallows: Once the butter is melted, add the marshmallows to the pot. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Adjust heat if needed.
- Monitor Marshmallows: Watch the marshmallows closely as they melt. Turn off the heat before they are completely melted. Leaving some unmelted marshmallows ensures softer treats.
- Mix Rice Krispies: Remove the pot from the heat and stir the marshmallows until mostly melted. Then, add the Rice Krispies to the pot and mix until evenly coated.
- Prepare Pan: Line a 13×18 pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with non-stick spray. This prevents sticking.
- Spread Mixture: Spray your hands with non-stick spray and transfer the Rice Krispie mixture to the prepared pan. Use your hands to spread and press the mixture evenly into the pan.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the treats to cool in the pan. The longer they sit, the easier they’ll be to cut. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve.
Optional: For thicker treats, use a 9×13 pan instead.
