For a smaller batch and an easier time mixing the cereal, divide the recipe in half (but use an 8x8" pan).

Yield Makes 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus more for pan
2 (10.5-ounce) bags mini marshmallows
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 3/4 cups Nutella
12 cups puffed rice cereal, divided (from one 12-ounce box)
1 (1.2-ounce) bag freeze-dried strawberries or raspberries (optional)
1 teaspoon red luster dust (optional)
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Lightly butter a 13x9" baking dish, then line with parchment paper, leaving a 2" overhang on long sides. Lightly butter parchment. Cook 3/4 cup butter in a large pot over medium heat, swirling, until butter foams, then browns (be careful not to let it burn), 5-7 minutes. Add marshmallows and salt. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth, about 3 minutes. Add Nutella and stir until completely incorporated into marshmallow mixture, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove pot from heat and add half of puffed rice to marshmallow mixture; stir with a nonflexible heatproof spatula or wooden spoon, scraping bottom of pot and folding, until cereal is coated. Add remaining cereal and fold until mixture is homogenous. (It's a lot of cereal, so you'll need to exert some effort.) If mixture is too stiff, heat over low while continuing to fold in cereal. Scrape into prepared pan; let cool slightly, then cover with a sheet of parchment paper. Press down firmly to make an even, compact layer (you want the top to be as flat as possible; a smaller pan, like a loaf or an 8x8" pan, works great for this). Cover crispies loosely with plastic and let sit until cool, about 2 hours.
  • Just before serving, using parchment paper overhang, lift crispies out of pan and place upside down on a cutting board; remove parchment. Using a serrated knife, trim about 1/2" from all sides to make a squared-off rectangle, then cut into a 6x4 grid to make 24 squares. Place crispies on a wire rack, spacing at least 1" apart.
  • To make half the crispies red, if desired, pulse freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor until finely ground; add luster dust and pulse just to combine. Using a fine-mesh sieve, dust 12 squares with strawberry powder, then, using a dry, clean sieve, dust remaining 12 squares with powdered sugar. Or feel free to dust all 24 squares with powdered sugar instead.
  • Do Ahead
  • Crispies can be made 1 day ahead. Leave in pan. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature. Cut into squares and coat just before serving.

I would not recommend this recipe. The crispies were a lot of work to make and they didn't taste very good.

These crispies looked amazing in the pictures, but when I made them they didn't look as good and they didn't taste that great either.

I followed the recipe exactly but my crispies didn't turn out as crispy as I expected. They were still tasty, though.

The crispies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall they were still pretty good.
