Small-Batch Matcha Rice Krispie Squares
Description
This recipe melts marshmallows, butter, and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth and slightly puffed. Matcha powder and vanilla extract are stirred in, infusing the mixture with earthy green tea flavor and aromatic notes. Crisp rice cereal and optional mini marshmallows are folded in and coated evenly by the matcha mixture. The combined mixture is pressed firmly into a small, parchment-lined square pan and allowed to cool and set for about 30 minutes.
Once set, the squares hold their shape and can be cut with a serrated knife. The inclusion of condensed milk adds moisture and chewiness beyond traditional marshmallow treats, while the matcha introduces a subtle, slightly bitter herbal flavor. The crisp rice cereal contributes crunch and contrast in texture.
Ingredients
- 150 g marshmallow plus additional for mixing in
- 15 g butter salted
- 20 ml sweetened condensed milk
- 1 ½ teaspoon matcha green tea powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 80 g crisp rice cereal 2 cups, Rice Krispies
Instructions
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the marshmallows, butter and condensed milk.
- Microwave it for 20-30 seconds, until the marshmallows are melted and slightly puffy.
- Add in the matcha powder and vanilla extract and stir to combine.
- Add in the crisp rice (rice krispies) and additional mini marshmallows, if desired.
- Use a spatula to combine together until all the crisp rice is coated with the matcha marshmallow mixture.
- Transfer to a small container or baking pan (I used a square 5" by 5" pan) lined with parchment paper and press firmly with an offset spatula.

- To serve, use a sharp serrated knife to cut into squares to your liking.
