Cuisine: American
Serves: 16 squares
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 package (10 oz) marshmallows
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter, 1 package (10 oz) of marshmallows, 1 cup of marshmallow fluff, and 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Make sure you have a large mixing bowl and a greased 9x13 inch baking dish ready.
- In a large saucepan, melt the 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter over low heat. Stir continuously to ensure the butter does not burn.
- Once the butter is completely melted, add the entire package of marshmallows to the saucepan. Continue to stir over low heat until the marshmallows are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Once the marshmallows are melted, remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately add the 1 cup of marshmallow fluff to the melted marshmallow mixture. Stir until the fluff is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, pour the 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Gradually add the melted marshmallow and fluff mixture to the cereal, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Once the cereal is well coated, transfer the mixture to the greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Using a spatula or your hands (lightly greased), press the mixture evenly into the dish. Make sure to pack it down firmly but gently to avoid crushing the cereal.
- Allow the Rice Krispie treats to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Once cooled, cut them into 16 squares using a sharp knife.
- Serve the Rice Krispie treats immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy your delicious Rice Krispie Treats with Marshmallow Fluff!
Tips
- Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture and meltability.
- Keep the heat low when melting butter and marshmallows to prevent burning.
- Grease your spatula or hands with butter to prevent sticking when pressing the mixture into the pan.
- Let the treats cool completely before cutting for clean, neat squares.
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of sea salt or drizzling melted chocolate on top.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain softness.
- For a fun twist, mix in sprinkles, chocolate chips, or crushed candy before setting.
