Rice Krispies Treats


Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 15 ounces of marshmellows, mini or regular
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 9 cups rice krispies cereal
  • 1 cup m&ms (holiday colors if wanted)
  • 1/2 cup sprinkles if wanted

Instructions

  • Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with foil and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter and the marshmallows in a medium sized saucepan over medium-low heat. Once the marshmallows are melted, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Quickly stir in the cereal. Stir in the candy and sprinkles.
  • Pour the marshmallow-cereal mixture into the prepared baking dish. Press to flatten. (I like to spray my hands with cooking spray and use them to press the treats into the pan – just be careful not to burn yourself.) Cool completely before cutting into squares.
