Texas Roadhouse Rice Krispie Treats

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
• 1 package (10 oz) mini marshmallows
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 8 cups Rice Krispies cereal
• 1/4 tsp salt (optional)

Instructions

1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir continuously until it is completely melted and begins to bubble gently (about 3-5 minutes).
2. Once the butter is melted, reduce the heat to low and add the mini marshmallows. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are fully melted and the mixture is smooth (about 4-6 minutes).
3. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
4. Gradually add the Rice Krispies cereal to the marshmallow mixture and stir gently but thoroughly until all the cereal is evenly coated.
5. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the prepared dish and press it evenly into the pan.
6. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Once cooled, cut into squares or rectangles.
