Ingredients
- 1 cup Dairy-free margarine
- 10 ounces Dairy-free marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 6 cups Rice cereal
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by greasing it lightly with a little bit of dairy-free margarine or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, melt the dairy-free margarine over low heat. Be careful not to let it brown.
Step 3
Add the dairy-free marshmallows to the melted margarine and stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Mix well to incorporate the flavors evenly.
Step 5
Pour the rice cereal into the marshmallow mixture and gently fold with a spatula until all the cereal is coated evenly.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, using the spatula to spread it out evenly across the dish.
Step 7
Using a piece of wax paper or your hands lightly greased with more dairy-free margarine, press down firmly to ensure the rice cereal is packed tightly and evenly in the baking dish.
Step 8
Let the Rice Krispie Treats cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until set.
Step 9
Once set, cut into 16 bars or squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
