Ingredients
– 6 cups rice krispies cereal (make sure itβs gluten-free if needed for your diet)
– Β½ cup unsalted butter
– Β½ cup dark brown sugar
– ΒΌ cup heavy whipping cream
– 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
– 1 teaspoon kosher salt or flaked sea salt, plus more for sprinkling on top
– 10 ounces mini marshmallows, plus 1 cup for mixing with the cereal
Instructions
1-First, in a large heat-proof bowl, toss the 6 cups of rice krispies cereal with 1 cup of mini marshmallows and set aside.
2-Spray an 8Γ8-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside to prepare for the mixture.
3-In a large heavy pot, melt the Β½ cup of unsalted butter over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Then reduce the heat to medium and add the Β½ cup of dark brown sugar, ΒΌ cup of heavy whipping cream, and 1 tablespoon of light corn syrup. Cook for about 7 minutes, stirring frequently until the caramel is thick and syrupy.
4-Add 1 teaspoon of kosher salt or flaked sea salt, stir to combine, then remove from heat. Stir in the 10 ounces of mini marshmallows until fully dissolved.
5-Quickly pour the caramel marshmallow mixture over the rice krispies and marshmallows in the bowl, stirring to coat thoroughly.
6-Gently press the mixture into the prepared pan without smashing too hard, then sprinkle with a bit more sea salt.
7-Allow to cool completely; cooling in the freezer speeds up the process, and cut into squares once cooled.
