Description
Easy and nostalgic Christmas Rice Crispy Treats that bring warmth and joy to any occasion.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 package (10 oz) marshmallows
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- Sprinkles (for decoration)
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Keep the flame gentle to avoid browning.
- Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Stir continuously and fold the marshmallows into the butter for a glossy mix.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the Rice Krispies cereal and stir until well coated. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to fold gently.
- Let the mixture cool slightly, then shape into balls. Butter your palms for neat balls.
- Roll the balls in sprinkles to coat. Press sprinkles lightly so they stick.
- Allow to cool completely before serving. Cooling helps the treats hold their shape.
