Ingredients
- 4 cups Rice bubbles (crispy rice cereal)
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 4 cups Mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Sprinkles (optional for decoration)
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with nonstick spray.
Step 2
In a large pot over medium-low heat, melt the butter completely.
Step 3
Add the mini marshmallows to the pot and stir continuously until they are fully melted and combined with the butter.
Step 4
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Gradually add the rice bubbles to the melted marshmallow mixture, gently folding until the cereal is evenly coated.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon (lightly greased to prevent sticking) to press the mixture down evenly.
Step 7
If desired, sprinkle the top with decorative sprinkles and press them gently so they stick.
Step 8
Allow the mixture to cool and set for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
Step 9
Once set, cut the mixture into 12 even squares or rectangles. Serve and enjoy!
Step 10
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
