Equipment

9 x 13 inch pan
Large pot
Whisk
Large mixing bowl
Spatula

Ingredients

8 cups rice cereal such as Rice Krispies
16 ounces mini marshmallows (divided - one cup set aside) one cup set aside
½ cup unsalted butter *
⅓ cup light brown sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Add your cereal and one cup of marshmallows to a large mixing bowl.
8 cups rice cereal, 16 ounces mini marshmallows (divided - one cup set aside)
In a large pot melt the butter and then whisk in the brown sugar, salt, and vanilla extract.
½ cup unsalted butter, ⅓ cup light brown sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla
Next, add in the remaining marshmallows. Cook on medium-low while stirring continuously until everything is melted and well combined.
16 ounces mini marshmallows (divided - one cup set aside)
Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the cereal and mix with a spatula until well combined.
Pour the mixture into a well greased 9 x 13 inch pan and then spray your hands with non-stick spray. Gently pat the treats into place. Alternatively, you can use a spatula coated with non-stick spray or wax paper if you don't want to use your hands. Be sure to be gentle, if you pat them down too hard they will become tough.
Let them sit for about one hour before serving.

Notes

Any nutritional information is an estimate by online calculators. Please verify using your own data.

*You can use salted butter if that's what you have on hand just omit the salt.

Recipe tips:

Use fresh ingredients. Stale marshmallows or stale cereal can cause your treats to become hard or tough. Fresh is best!
Don't press down on the treats too hard. I recommend spraying your hands with non stick spray and then gently pat them down into the pan. Alternatively, you can use wax paper to pat the treats down. Be gentle!
Store these treats at room temperature. If they are refrigerated they will become hard.
Let them sit for about an hour before serving. Any sooner and they may fall apart.

Storage:

Store any leftover treats at room temperature in an airtight container. They will be good for up to four days after making.
