Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 7 cups mini marshmallows, divided
- 7 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray, or rub with butter. Measure out Rice Krispies; set aside.
- In a large pot, melt butter and 5 cups mini marshmallows over medium-low heat.
- When melted, remove from heat and immediately stir in cereal and remaining 2 cups mini marshmallows, until all cereal is coated with melted marshmallows. The mini marshmallows you add in will stay relatively whole.
- Pour into prepared pan and press down lightly into an even layer. Let cool and cut into squares. For best taste and texture, serve the same day.
- If desired, cover well and store at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Notes
- Make sure to only press down lightly for the best texture! Spray your hands with nonstick spray, or use a piece of wax paper, or a butter wrapper to prevent the mixture from sticking to your hands.
