Ultimate Rice Krispie Treats by Avelenecano5776

Ingredients

• 6 tbsp salted butter
• 1 pinch salt, if using unsalted butter
• 16 oz mini marshmallows, divided
• 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
• 6 to 7 cups Rice Krispies cereal
• Butter or nonstick spray, for greasing a 9x13-inch pan

Instructions

1. Grease a 9x13-inch pan with butter or nonstick spray.
2. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, then stir in the salt if needed and the vanilla.
3. Add 15 ounces of the mini marshmallows and stir until fully melted, about 3 to 4 minutes.
4. Turn off the heat, stir in the remaining 1 cup marshmallows, then fold in enough Rice Krispies to coat evenly.
5. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and gently press it into an even layer without packing it tightly.
6. Let the treats rest covered at room temperature for 1 hour, then cut into squares and serve.
