Marshmallow Crisp Microwave Rice Krispies Squares Food

MARSHMALLOW CRISP (MICROWAVE RICE KRISPIES SQUARES)

Steps:

• If you want to use large marshmallows, the recipe says to use an entire 10-oz package, or 40 large marshmallows. I always use 4 cups of miniature marshmallows, however.
• You will need a buttered (I just use nonstick cooking spray though) oblong pan and a large casserole dish with a lid that can go into your microwave. If you use a 13x9 pan your squares will be very flat, so my personal preference is to use a smaller pan so I get thicker squares.
• Place butter in casserole dish and microwave until melted, about a minute or so on High.
• Add marshmallows, stir, and cover. Microwave on High for 2 minutes, remove and stir, then re-cover and microwave for about another minute or so, until marshmallows melt. Stir until well blended.
• Add cereal and stir until well coated. I use a wooden spoon.
• Transfer mixture into prepared pan. Wet your hands a bit under the tap, shake off excess water, then use your hands to flatten cereal mixture into the pan. Dampen hands again if mixture starts to stick.
• Set aside to cool and set up, then cut into squares. Keep covered tightly if you have leftovers.
• Variation: after you add cereal, you can also stir in one cup of chocolate chips or a chocolate candy like M&Ms.

EXTRA-MARSHMALLOW CRISPY RICE TREATS

Steps:

• Line an 8-inch square baking dish with aluminum foil and spray generously with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the cereal with 1 bag marshmallows in a large bowl; set aside.
• Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot or stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the 3 remaining bags of marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are fully melted, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Fold half the cereal mixture into the melted marshmallows until well-coated; fold in the remaining cereal mixture.
• Scoop the mixture into the prepared pan. Spray another piece of foil with cooking spray and use it to cover the mixture, pressing gently on the foil to evenly spread the mixture out, getting it evenly into the corners and flattening the top (you can dome the top slightly if you have extra mixture). Place in the refrigerator to set, around 1 hour. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve. Leftovers keep in an airtight container at room temperature, 2 days; or wrap in a freezer bag and freeze.

Cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes, then carefully lift from pan by grasping both ends of foil. Peel off and discard foil, then cut into 1-inch squares.
• Spread some of ganache on half of squares, using about 1/2 teaspoon ganache each, then top with remaining squares. Reheat remaining ganache in metal bowl over barely simmering water, whisking occasionally, until loosened, then drizzle over tops of squares.
