MARSHMALLOW CRISPY TREATS

Steps:

• Thoroughly grease a 9- by 13-inch pan with softened butter.
• In a large pot, melt the butter. Stir in the regular marshmallows until they're totally melted. Stir in the salt. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Pour in the cereal, folding gently the whole time until all combined. Then pour in the mini marshmallows and gently fold in. Turn into the buttered pan and press flat. Immediately top with rainbow sprinkles.
• Let cool completely, and then cut into squares.

LEFTOVER EASTER CANDY CRISPY TREATS

Steps:

• Line an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with a sheet of foil large enough to leave a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Grease the foil with 1 tablespoon of butter.
• Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the marshmallows, stirring occasionally until they melt completely, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and a pinch of salt.
• Working quickly, add the rice cereal and candy to the pot and stir with a rubber spatula until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and press into an even, compact layer. (Wet your hands to keep the mixture from sticking.) Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes. Cut into 16 squares.
• Store the treats at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

S'MORES CRISPY RICE TREATS

Steps:

• Set aside 1 cup marshmallows, 3/4 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers to top the treats with.
• Lightly spray an 8-inch square metal baking pan with nonstick spray. Cut out an 8-inch-wide strip of parchment paper and use it to line the pan, leaving enough overhang on the sides so you can use the flaps to lift out the treats. Lightly spray the parchment with nonstick spray.
• In a large nonstick pot over medium heat, add the butter. Swirl around until melted, then dump in the marshmallows. Stir gently with a spatula until the marshmallows have completely melted, about 90 seconds. Remove the pot from the heat, then add the rice cereal and stir until combined. Let cool slightly, then add the crushed graham crackers and fold in gently. Add the chocolate chips and mix just barely until folded in (if you mix too much, the chocolate will melt completely).
• Dump the mixture into the lined pan and press down gently so the mixture is evenly distributed in the pan. While still warm, sprinkle with the reserved marshmallows, reserved chocolate chips and reserved crushed graham crackers. Using a creme brulee torch, toast the marshmallows and melt the chocolate evenly, using a sweeping motion so the marshmallows don't catch fire, about 45 seconds.
• Allow to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Slice into squares using a warm, sharp knife and serve.
