Serves: 12+
Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 10 oz bag of mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups for puff rice cereal
  • sprinkles, optional
  • 3" heart-shaped cookie cutters, optional
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat.
  2. Once the butter is melted add the marshmallows. Stir so that everything is coated in butter. Keep stirring occasionally until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth. This takes about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Pour in the rice cereal and sprinkles (start with 1-2 tablespoons and add based on what looks good to you). Stir with a silicon spatula until everything is coated in a web of marshmallow.
  4. Pour the rice crispy mix into a 9x13" pan. Using your silicon spatula, press the rice crispy mix into the corners of the pan. Press until the mix is flat and feels fairly dense.
  5. Let the rice crispy treats cool for about 30 minutes.
  6. Press cookie cutters into the pan to cut out shapes. Use a knife to wedge them and serve.
