Rice Krispies Treats With Mini Marshmallows Recipes

Steps:

• Line an 8-inch square baking dish with aluminum foil and spray generously with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the cereal with 1 bag marshmallows in a large bowl; set aside.
• Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot or stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the 3 remaining bags of marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are fully melted, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Fold half the cereal mixture into the melted marshmallows until well-coated; fold in the remaining cereal mixture.
• Scoop the mixture into the prepared pan. Spray another piece of foil with cooking spray and use it to cover the mixture, pressing gently on the foil to evenly spread the mixture out, getting it evenly into the corners and flattening the top (you can dome the top slightly if you have extra mixture). Place in the refrigerator to set, around 1 hour. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve. Leftovers keep in an airtight container at room temperature, 2 days; or wrap in a freezer bag and freeze.

Steps:

• Microwave butter in medium microwaveable bowl on HIGH 15 sec. or until melted. Add marshmallows; toss to coat. Microwave 15 sec. or until marshmallows are completely melted and mixture is well blended when stirred.
• Add cereal; mix well.
• Press onto bottom of small bowl or measuring cup sprayed with cooking spray. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Thoroughly grease a 9- by 13-inch pan with softened butter.
• In a large pot, melt the butter. Stir in the regular marshmallows until they're totally melted. Stir in the salt. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Pour in the cereal, folding gently the whole time until all combined. Then pour in the mini marshmallows and gently fold in. Turn into the buttered pan and press flat. Immediately top with rainbow sprinkles.
• Let cool completely, and then cut into squares.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large sauce pan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until melted and well-blended. Cook 2 minutes longer, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Add cereal. Stir until well coated.
