These Brown Butter Krispies are some of the best Rice Krispies Treats you will ever taste! Taking a little extra time to brown the butter is an easy step that really elevates the flavor. These are perfect for an afternoon snack, dessert for an outdoor bbq or packed in a school lunchbox!
9 cups Rice Krispies cereal
12 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 cups marshmallows (2-10 oz bags)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. Grease a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
2. Begin by measuring rice cereal into a large bowl.
3. In large pot, melt butter over low heat for about 10 minutes, until it turns a deep golden brown color.
4. Keeping the heat set to low, add in 10 cups of the marshmallows and the kosher salt. Stir occasionally until the marshmallows are completely melted. Remove the pot from the heat, add in the vanilla extract and stir to combine.
5. Pour the melted marshmallow mixture and the 2 cups additional marshmallows to the bowl of cereal and stir until well coated.
6. Pour into prepared pan. Using the back of the butter wrapper, wax paper or a fork that has been greased with butter, press the cereal mixture evenly into the pan.
7. Cool for at least 30 minutes. Cut into squares, serve & enjoy!
•These are best served the same day, but can be stored for two days at room temperature in an airtight container.
•For extra gooey Brown Butter Krispies, melt all 12 cups of marshmallows instead of reserving 2 cups of marshmallows to fold in. They are delicious this way as well!
