Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups Crisp Rice Cereal
- 10 ounces Festive Winter Marshmallows (look for blue, white, or snowflake shapes)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
Instructions
- Start by preparing your baking dish so the treats do not stick. Grease a 9×9 inch square pan generously with butter or line it with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Measure out your rice cereal and set it aside in a large mixing bowl. Having everything ready to go is crucial because the marshmallow mixture sets very quickly once it starts to cool.
- Place a large pot over low heat and add the four tablespoons of butter. Melt the butter completely, being careful not to let it brown. Add the festive marshmallows to the pot. Stir constantly with a silicone spatula until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy. Remove the pot from the heat immediately. Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the rice cereal in your bowl. Fold the ingredients together gently until every piece of cereal is coated in the gooey marshmallow goodness.
- Transfer the mixture into your prepared baking pan. Use a piece of buttered wax paper or the back of a greased spatula to press the mixture down. Press firmly enough to even it out, but do not pack it too tightly, or the treats will be hard to bite. Let the treats cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Once set, lift them out of the pan using the parchment paper edges and slice them into 12 even squares. Serve them on a festive platter and watch them disappear!
