Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 16 ounces marshmallows
- 6 cups rice krispies cereal
- pinch of salt
Add-ins
- 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles, plus more for topping
- 1 cup white chocolate chips, plus more for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Pan: Line a 9×9 inch pan with parchment paper and grease it lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add marshmallows and stir continuously with a spatula until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat immediately to avoid burning.
- Combine with Cereal: Pour the melted marshmallow mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add the rice krispies cereal and fold gently using a rubber spatula until the cereal is evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
- Add Sprinkles and White Chocolate: Carefully fold in the rainbow sprinkles and white chocolate chips into the cereal mixture to distribute them evenly without melting the chips.
- Spread Mixture in Pan: Transfer the sticky mixture into the prepared pan. Use a greased rubber spatula to spread and press the mixture into an even layer.
- Top and Chill: Optionally, sprinkle additional white chocolate chips and some more rainbow sprinkles on top for extra decoration and flavor. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it set until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Serve: Once set, remove from the fridge and cut into 16 squares. Enjoy your festive and tasty treat!
Notes
- For softer treats, consume soon after chilling; for firmer texture, chill longer.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and clean-up.
- Rainbow sprinkles add fun color but can be substituted with any favorite decorative sprinkles.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
