Servings 16
Ingredients
- 6 Cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 1 bag (10 oz) marshmallows
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
- In a large pot, melt 3 tbsp butter over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the entire bag of marshmallows, stirring constantly until they are completely melted and smooth.
- Once the marshmallows are melted, stir in 2 tsp of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
- Remove the pot from the heat and quickly fold in 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until the cereal is fully coated in the marshmallow mixture. Be sure to work quickly!
- Transfer the marshmallow-cereal mixture into your prepared baking dish. Use a spatula (or your hands, lightly greased with butter) to press gently on the mixture evenly into the pan.
- Allow the Rice Krispies Treats to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes at room temperature. Once cooled, cut them into squares and enjoy!
