MARSHMALLOW TREATS



Marshmallow Treats image

Special Note: The 1941 original rice cereal recipe called for 1/4 c. butter and 5 c. cereal. Over the years they changed it to 3 T. butter and 6 c. cereal. (I guess to make it healthier??) I find that when you use the new recipe the treats are dry and tend to fall apart. I stick with the old original recipe! Hint- try adding a...

Provided by linda hennessey

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 c butter
5 c rice cereal (rice krispies)
4 c miniature marshmallows
OPTIONAL
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
dash(es) salt

Steps:

  • 1. Microwave butter with marshmallows on high setting for 3 minutes. Stirring after 2 minutes. Stir in cereal, mixing until well coated. Note: You must work fast or it starts to set.
  • 2. Using a buttered spatula, press the mixture evenly into a 13x9x2 inch pan which has been buttered or sprayed with nonstick spray or lined with parchment/wax paper.
  • 3. Cut into squares when the mixture cools. Makes 12 large squares.
  • 4. Hint: Just before adding the cereal to the mix, you may add a dash or two of salt and/or a tablespoon of vanilla extract.

Tips:

  • Use fresh marshmallows. Fresh marshmallows will give your treats a better flavor and texture than old, stale marshmallows.
  • Don't overcook the marshmallows. When you're melting the marshmallows, be careful not to overheat them. Overcooked marshmallows will become tough and chewy.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins. You can add a variety of mix-ins to your marshmallow treats, such as chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, or sprinkles. Get creative and have fun with it!
  • Let the treats cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from becoming sticky.

Conclusion:

Marshmallow treats are a classic dessert that is loved by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious batch of marshmallow treats that will be enjoyed by everyone.
