In a large pot, melt your butter. Reduce your heat to medium-low and whisk in the salt and nutmeg.

Add in the remaining marshmallows and maple syrup. I recommend using a medium-low heat and stirring constantly for the best results. Cook until everything is melted evenly.

Notes

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

For the best results:

Use fresh marshmallows and cereal for the best results. If your cereal or marshmallows are stale it can cause your treats to turn out tough.
Gently press the treats down into the pan

Storage: You can cover your dish with plastic cling wrap or aluminum foil or transfer the treats to a large storage container. Store at room temperature, do not refrigerate or freeze. The treats will be good up to four days after making.
