Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 10 cups mini marshmallows
• 6 cups crispy rice cereal
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch pinch of salt
• 1 nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lightly spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Step 3

Add the mini marshmallows to the melted butter and stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.

Step 4

Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt for flavor and mix well.

Step 5

Remove the pot from heat and quickly fold in the crispy rice cereal. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to mix until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and lightly press it down into an even layer using a spatula or clean, greased hands. Be careful not to press too hard as this can make the treats too dense.

Step 7

Allow the marshmallow treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until firm enough to slice.

Step 8

Once cooled, cut the treats into squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!
