Ultimate Recipe for Rice Krispies Treats with Brown Butter and More

Add unsalted butter to a large pot.

Start with cold or room temperature butter, cut into pieces for even melting.

Melt the butter over medium heat, cooking off the water content and toasting the milk solids for about 3 to 5 minutes until browned.

Add 25 grams of dried full milk powder to the browned butter and toast for about 2 minutes over medium-low heat until it reaches a nice color.

Add a rounded quarter teaspoon of salt and the first round of 9 cups of mini marshmallows to the pot, scraping the bottom and sides to incorporate all flavors.

Remove the pot from heat and add 1 cup of mini marshmallows all at once to create marshmallow pockets.

Stir in 7 cups of Rice Krispies cereal until well combined.

Transfer the mixture into an 8-inch lightly greased square pan and press it down firmly to compact it.

Let the mixture set before slicing into bars.
