Equipment
- Medium saucepan
- Spatula or knife
- Oven dish lined with greaseproof or parchment paper
Ingredients
- 45 g butter
- 250 g marshmallows
- 165 g Rice Krispies cereal
Instructions
- Melt the Butter:In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat on the stove.
- Add the Marshmallows:Once the butter is melted, add the 250g of marshmallows to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the marshmallows have fully melted and the mixture is smooth and gooey.
- Stir in the Rice Krispies:Keeping the pan over low heat, gently fold in the 165g of Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until the cereal is fully coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Transfer to a Dish:Remove the pan from heat. Pour the marshmallow-coated Rice Krispies into a dish lined with greaseproof or parchment paper.
- Level the Mixture:Use a spatula or the back of a knife to evenly spread and compact the Rice Krispies mixture in the dish until the top is flat.
- Set the Treats:Let the Rice Krispies treats set. You can either place them in the fridge to chill or leave them in a cool, covered place until firm.
- Cut into Squares:Once the treats have set, peel back the parchment paper and cut the giant Rice Krispies square into 12 smaller squares.
