Equipment
- an 8 x 8 x 2-inch baking pan
- cooking spray
- a large pot
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 (10-ounce) bag mini marshmallows, plus 1 cup (to keep aside for sprinkling in later)
- 1 tbsp vanilla
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- Flaky sea salt (if that’s your bag)
- 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk.
Instructions
- Grease an 8 x 8 x 2-inch pan with cooking spray or softened butter.
- Place the butter in a large pot on the stove and melt it over medium heat. Add the sweetened condensed milk and stir with a rubber spatula for about 2 minutes, until the butter and condensed milk combine. Small bubbles should form in the center of the mixture.
- Add the marshmallows and stir until melted and smooth.
- Add the vanilla and salt and stir again.
- Off the heat, add the Rice Krispies and the remaining 1 cup of marshies and stir to combine. (The extra cup of mini marshmallows for folding in at the last minute is optional — not everyone is *as* into gloopy Rice Krispies Treats. The tablespoon of vanilla works wonders with the melted, buttery marshmallows too.)
- Transfer to the prepared pan and press down lightly with a sheet of plastic wrap (you don’t want to pack the Rice Krispies Treats down or they’ll lose their inherently soft and gooey texture). Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if using.
- Let sit on the counter for at least 1 hour to set up. Cut into 16 slices and serve.
- You can store any leftovers in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days. (But don’t worry, there won’t be any.)
