Ingredients

6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
10 ounces marshmallows about 40 large
1/4 cup butter or margarine

Instructions

Grease a 9x13 inch pan with butter or cooking spray.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press down evenly using a greased spatula or your hands (lightly greased).
Let the treats cool and set for at least 30 minutes before cutting into squares.

Notes

For softer treats, melt marshmallows slowly and don’t overmix.

A pinch of salt enhances the sweetness and flavor balance.

Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
