Ingredients

15 servings

1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons flaky sea salt
10 -ounce package miniature marshmallows (16 ounces for extra gooey!)
12 -ounce box of Rice Krispies or crispy rice cereal (about 11-12 cups)

Steps

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Add sugar and whipping cream; stir to incorporate. It will take a minute, but as it heats, you’ll start to see a smooth, creamy caramel mixture form. Heat over medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes, until you have a slightly thickened caramel sauce that coats the back of a spoon.
Remove from heat and stir in the salt. Taste and adjust for more salt if you want.
Add the marshmallows and stir until melted.
Stir in the cereal. Press mixture into a 9×13 pan. You might have a little bit of extra that doesn’t fit in the pan – perfect for a little snack, if you ask me.
Cool slightly, cut into squares, and enjoy! You can eat these at room temperature, but I also love them in the refrigerator! They stay excellently tight, compact, and yet still soft and chewy as they thaw. For some reason that cold, crispy, buttery texture is just really enjoyable.
