Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter
- 16 ounces large marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- 8 cups crisp rice cereal, like Rice Krispies
- ½ cup butterscotch chips
Instructions
- Butter the bottom and sides of a 9X13-inch pan. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter on low heat and let it cook until the solids start to turn golden brown and it smells caramelly and fragrant (here's a browned butter how-to if you'd like a visual).
- Add the marshmallows and cook on low, stirring constantly until mostly melted, a few small lumps here and there are ok. Add the vanilla and salt and stir to combine.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the rice krispies and butterscotch chips. Stir until evenly combined.
- Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan and using lightly greased or barely wet (with cold water) hands, lightly press the mixture into the pan (mashing them too hard and you'll end up with very firm rice krispie treats - so use a gentle hand if you want them chewy). Let cool before slicing into squares.
Notes
- Marshmallows: you can use the same equivalent of mini marshmallows (16 ounces/454 grams).
