NEW KID IN TOWN RICE KRISPIES TREATS®

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup UNSALTED BUTTER, cubed

1 10-oz bag MARSHMALLOWS

5 cups CRISPY RICE CEREAL

1 cup COLORFUL CEREAL

optional: chocolate chips, nuts, candy, peanut butter

DIRECTIONS

Grease a 9×13 baking pan by rubbing it with a stick of butter or using cooking spray. Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a saucepan. Once the butter is melted, slowly add the marshmallows one at a time, stirring constantly. Once the marshmallows are melted and there are no lumps, stir in the cereal and any other add-ins you want to use. Mix until evenly distributed. Pour the mixture into the baking sheet and pat it down with a spatula. Refrigerate until cool. Cut into squares and serve.
