Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 treats
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 package (10 oz) marshmallows
- 6 cups rice cereal
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- Sprinkles for decoration
Instructions
- Prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan by lightly greasing it with butter or cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, ensuring no marshmallow lumps remain.
- Remove the marshmallow mixture from heat and quickly fold in rice cereal, stirring gently but thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using a spatula or buttered hands, press the mixture evenly and firmly into the pan, creating a smooth, compact layer.
- Allow the treats to cool and set at room temperature for approximately 30-45 minutes until firm.
- Once cooled, cut the treats into 12 equal rectangular bars using a sharp knife.
- Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring between each interval to prevent burning.
- Dip each krispy treat halfway into the melted white chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Place the dipped treats on a parchment-lined baking sheet and immediately sprinkle with decorative sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Let the white chocolate harden completely at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting, about 10-15 minutes.
Tips
- Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture and melting consistency.
- Grease your spatula or hands with butter to prevent the mixture from sticking when pressing into the pan.
- For smooth white chocolate melting, use low microwave power and stir frequently.
- Work quickly when dipping treats in chocolate to ensure an even coating.
- Add sprinkles immediately after dipping while the chocolate is still wet.
- For a cleaner cut, use a sharp knife and clean it between cuts.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For extra flavor, try using different sprinkle colors or types to match your theme or occasion.
