Ingredients
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 24 ounces Campfire® Maple Roasters
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 8 cups crisped rice cereal
- 1 cup Campfire® Mini White Marshmallows optional
- ⅔ cup Chopped Pecans
- ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar sifted
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons maple extract
- 1-3 teaspoons milk
- ⅓ cup chopped pecans for garnish optional
Instructions
- Line a 9 x 9-inch baking pan with parchment paper or foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In large pan, melt butter over low heat. Add in Maple Roasters and stir until completely melted. Note: These marshmallows are pretty large, so they will take a bit of time to melt. If you're short on time, you can use kitchen scissors to cut the marshmallows into smaller pieces, which will help them melt quicker.
- Stir in cinnamon and vanilla.
- Gradually add crisped rice cereal; stirring until well coated. Fold in the mini marshmallows and pecans until thoroughly incorporated.
- Use a buttered spatula or clean hands to firmly press the mixture into the prepared pan. Cool completely.
For the Buttercream
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat butter on medium-high speed for about 5 minutes.
- With the mixer on low speed, slowly add in powdered sugar and cinnamon and continue beating until combined.
- Add in the vanilla extract, maple extract, and 1 teaspoon of milk. Mix on low speed until incorporated.
- Turn the mixer up to high speed and beat the frosting until it is smooth and fluffy; about 4-5 more minutes. If your frosting is too thick, gradually add a little more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time until you reach the desired consistency.
- Spread or pipe frosting onto cooled marshmallow cereal treats and top with chopped pecans.
Notes
- I cut these cereal treats into 9 large pieces. I then piped the buttercream in a zig-zag pattern using a Wilton 2a piping tip.
- If you want the bars to be thinner, I'd suggest using a 9 x 13-inch pan instead of a 9 x 9-inch pan.
- If you can't find Campfire® Maple Roasters in your area, I've got ya covered. Simply sub in 2 (10.5-ounce) packages of Campfire® Mini White Marshmallows and add 2 1/2 teaspoons of maple extract to the melted marshmallow mixture.
