Ingredients

  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
  • 4 cups Mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.5 cups Optional: Sprinkles or chopped nuts for topping

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a 9-inch round or square cake pan by lightly greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth. This should take about 1-2 minutes in total.

Step 3

Once melted, immediately stir the mini marshmallows into the chocolate mixture until they are completely coated and starting to soften from the warmth.

Step 4

Quickly add the vanilla extract and salt, stirring to combine.

Step 5

Pour the Rice Krispies cereal into the bowl with the chocolate mixture. Gently fold the cereal into the mixture until all the cereal is evenly coated with the chocolate.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Using a spatula or your hands (lightly greased to avoid sticking), press the mixture firmly into the pan to create an even layer.

Step 7

If using sprinkles or chopped nuts for topping, scatter them over the surface and press lightly to ensure they stick.

Step 8

Let the cake set at room temperature for about 1-2 hours, or place it in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes to set faster.

Step 9

Once set, remove the cake from the pan and cut it into slices or squares. Serve and enjoy!
