Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 10 cups mini marshmallows
• 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Directions

Step 1

Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over low heat, stirring frequently to avoid browning.

Step 3

Once the butter is fully melted, add the mini marshmallows to the pot. Stir constantly over low heat until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.

Step 4

Remove the pot from heat and quickly stir in the Rice Krispies cereal until all pieces are evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to the prepared 9x13-inch baking dish. Using a greased spatula or lightly buttered hands, gently press the mixture into an even layer. Be careful not to press too firmly as this can make the treats dense.

Step 6

Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before slicing into 12 squares or rectangles.

Step 7

Serve and enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
