Ingredients

6 tbsp salted butter, european-style

16 fl oz marshmallows

7 cup rice krispies cereal

18 fl oz chocolate , melted and tempered, (candy melts), or melted confectionery coating

small candies

sprinkles

nuts, chopped

edible glitter

Preparation

Melt the butter and marshmallows together in a medium-large saucepan set over low heat until ¾ of the marshmallows have melted.

Remove from the heat and stir, smashing down on the marshmallows, until they burst and melt.

Alternatively, heat the butter and marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl on high power for 1 minute then remove and stir vigorously. If needed, heat for 15-second increments, stirring after each, until melted.

Pour the cereal into a well-buttered, large mixing bowl. Pour the hot marshmallows over the cereal and toss to coat.

Gently press into a well-buttered 9x13-inch pan. Allow to cool completely before cutting into 18 rectangles or smaller bite-sized squares.
