Instructions
- Line a 9x13 inch baking dish with wax paper or parchment paper for easy cleanup, or grease with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- In a large pot or medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the 3 cups of mini marshmallows.
- Stir continuously. Once completely melted, remove the saucepan from the stovetop.
- Add the rice krispies and sprinkles. Stir well to combine everything thoroughly.
- Transfer the rice krispie mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread out evenly using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula.
- Add the Easter sprinkles and peanut M&Ms on top and gently press them into the rice krispies mixture.
- Allow to cool completely at room temperature until the mixture becomes firm and holds its shape.
- Once fully cooled, use a sharp knife to cut it into 24 bars or squares.
- Arrange the M&M rice krispies treats on a platter or board and serve. Enjoy!
Notes
- Low Heat Melting: When melting the marshmallows and butter, it's crucial to use medium-low heat. This ensures that the ingredients melt slowly and evenly, resulting in a smooth and creamy marshmallow mixture without risking burning or scorching.
- Working Quickly: Once you add the rice krispies to the melted marshmallows, work quickly to spread the mixture into the pan before it starts to set. The marshmallow mixture firms up easily, and it may be challenging to spread it in the baking dish.
- Even Mixing: Stirring the cereal mixture thoroughly is essential to ensure that your rice krispies are coated with the melted marshmallow evenly to ensure a consistent texture throughout the treats.
- Bottom of the Pot: When melting the marshmallows, scrape the bottom of the pot frequently to prevent them from sticking and burning.
- Pressing Technique: When transferring the mixture into the prepared pan, it's essential to press it down firmly and evenly. Applying gentle pressure ensures that the treats hold together well without becoming too dense or crumbly.
