Cocoa Krispie Treats
Servings 12
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter
- 20 oz mini marshmallows
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 10 cups Cocoa Krispies
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
**For garnish:**
- 1 cup melted chocolate chips
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Begin by preparing a 9×13 pan. Line it with parchment paper, lightly mist with nonstick cooking spray, and set it aside.
- In a large pot, melt one cup of salted butter. Stir continuously until the butter starts to brown slightly, giving off a delightful nutty aroma. Remove it from heat to prevent burning.
- Immediately stir in two teaspoons of vanilla extract. Expect some bubbling as you stir for an additional thirty seconds until the sizzling subsides.
- Add half of the mini marshmallows, mix until almost melted, then add the rest. Stir until all marshmallows are completely melted.
- Gradually add Cocoa Krispies, 2 cups at a time, stirring lightly until combined. Keep adding until everything is evenly mixed.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. With lightly wet hands, gently push it to the edges. Be gentle to avoid crushing it!
- For the chocolate garnish, microwave chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl for 30 seconds. Stir and repeat until completely melted. Let it cool for 3 minutes.
- Using a spoon, drizzle the melted chocolate onto the treats or dip them. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top, and voilà – enjoy your delightful Cocoa Krispie Treats!
