Ingredients
- 1/4 cup salted butter sliced into thin pats
- 4 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
- 6 cups crisp rice cereal
Instructions
- Turn your crockpot on set to high heat, and add the butter to the bottom of the bowl. Cover & let it set for a couple minutes, just until melted.
- Add the marhsmallows to the bowl of the crockpot. Return the lid to cover, and let it set again so that they melt.
- Stir everything together until evenly combined & the mixture's mostly smooth. Turn the crockpot OFF.
- Spray a 9x13" baking dish with non stick spray until evenly coated. Trasnfer the cereal mixture to it, and then spread out in an evenly layer pressing to all edges of the pan.
- Set the mixture aside and allow it to cool completely.
- Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
- Whether using a spatula or your hands to spread the rice krispie mixture out into an even layer, spray with nonstick spray so they don't stick to the implement either.
- Like with other candy creations in the crockpot, stuck on marshmallow can be a pain to scrub off. Using a disposable crockpot liner when making this recipe will make clean up a breeze.
- For a fun serving suggestion, the sons like to leave leftover treats out so that they get stale overnight, then crumble them up into bowls and enjoy in the morning with a splash of milk.
