Ingredients
- 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Toasted O-shaped oat cereal
- 10 oz Mini marshmallows
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Sprinkles (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Set it aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex cereal and toasted O-shaped oat cereal. Toss gently to mix and set aside.
Step 3
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows.
Step 4
Stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth, then remove the saucepan from heat.
Step 5
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until fully incorporated into the melted marshmallow mixture.
Step 6
Quickly pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the cereal blend in the mixing bowl.
Step 7
Using a silicone spatula greased with butter or non-stick spray, fold the mixture together until all the cereal is evenly coated.
Step 8
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Lightly press it down using the greased spatula or clean hands to form an even layer. Do not press too firmly, as this will make the treats too dense.
Step 9
If using, scatter sprinkles over the top and gently press them into the surface to adhere.
Step 10
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until firm.
Step 11
Once set, cut into 12 squares or desired portion sizes using a sharp knife.
Step 12
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
