Funfetti Rice Krispie Treats
These funfetti rice krispie treats are filled with warm browned butter, gooey marshmallows, and my personal favorite: rainbow sprinkles.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 6 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang on each side. Set aside.
- Heat the butter in a small stockpot or very large saucepan over low heat 1 minute or until melted.
- Increase heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, 7 to 10 minutes or until you notice the butter turning a dark golden brown color along the bottom of the pan.
- Immediately add marshmallows and salt, stirring constantly, until fully melted into the butter. Once the marshmallows are completely melted, remove from the heat and stir in the cereal.
- Gently fold the cereal and marshmallow mixture together until the cereal is fully combined. Fold in the sprinkles, being careful to not crush the cereal.
- Scoop the cereal into the prepared pan, pressing down as you work with your hand. Be sure to get the cereal into each corner.
- Let the rice krispie treats sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour or until set. Use the parchment paper overhang to slide the bars out of the baking pan, slice, and serve.
