Ingredients
- 6 cups Gluten-free crisped rice cereal
- 10 ounces Miniature marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Gluten-free chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lightly greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper for easy release.
Step 2
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Step 3
Once the butter has completely melted, add the miniature marshmallows to the pot. Stir constantly with a spatula until the marshmallows are fully melted and smooth.
Step 4
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Mix well to combine.
Step 5
Add the gluten-free crisped rice cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture. Fold the cereal in with a spatula, ensuring that all pieces are evenly coated.
Step 6
If desired, gently fold in the gluten-free chocolate chips for an added touch of sweetness and texture.
Step 7
Transfer the mixture into the prepared 9x13-inch baking dish. Use a lightly greased spatula or clean hands to press the mixture evenly into the dish without compacting it too much.
Step 8
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until firm.
Step 9
Once cooled, cut into 12 squares using a sharp knife. Serve and enjoy!
Step 10
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
