Notes
- Use the microwave instead of the stove. It’s easier and keeps the sugar in the marshmallows from becoming too hot.
- Use mini marshmallows. The butter coats them more evenly. They melt faster and more easily than standard size marshmallows.
- Butter the casserole dish so the Rice Krispie Treats come out of the pan easily.
- Don’t compact the Rice Krispie Treats too tightly in the pan.
- Do Not Refrigerate. Store the Rice Krispie Treats in an airtight container at room temperature.
