CARAMELIZED BROWN BUTTER RICE KRISPIES TREATS

Steps:

• Line rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or wax paper, or butter it well.
• In a large pot, melt butter over medium-low heat. It will melt, then foam, then turn clear golden and finally start to turn brown and smell nutty. Watch closely and stir often.
• When butter is evenly browned, stir in marshmallows. (If using unsalted butter, stir in 1/8 teaspoon salt.) Melt and cook, stirring often, until mixture turns pale brown, then stir constantly until lightly browned but not dark, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn off heat, add cereal, and mix well, preferably with a silicone spoon or a spatula. Scrape into prepared pan (either 9x13 for thick pieces or a cookie sheet with a rim for thinner pieces) and press down lightly. If necessary, butter hands to press mixture flat. Let cool, and cut into squares or bars.

Steps:

• Thoroughly grease a baking sheet with softened butter.
• Add the butter to a large pot set over medium heat. Allow it to melt and bubble up, swirling the pot to keep it moving around, until the butter is a medium golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the regular marshmallows until they're totally melted. Stir in the salt.
• Remove from the heat and pour in the cereal, folding gently the whole time until combined. Then pour in the mini marshmallows and gently fold in. Turn the mixture into the buttered baking sheet and press flat. Let cool completely, and then cut into squares or rectangles.
