It is hard to improve on a classic family treat, but this recipe is even better than the ones you had as a kid. How, you might ask, is that possible? More marshmallows.

A classic family favorite updated with a twist. Crispy rice, gooey marshmallows, and a fun pop of color from cereal style freeze dried mini marshmallows.

12 oz Crispy Rice Cereal
2 Cups of freeze dried mini marshmallows (like they put in kids cereal)
1/2 Cup / 1 Stick of butter
2 10 oz packages of mini marshmallows
Cooking spray oil

Generously spray a large rectangular baking pan with cooking spray. I used a 10×14.5 pan
In a large, deep pot melt the butter over medium heat

As soon as the butter is melted add the 2 bags of mini marshmallows. Stir continuously until all the marshmallows are melted.

Remove pan from heat. Quickly add 1/2 the cereal and 1/2 the freeze dried marshmallows. Stir until everything is well coated in the melted butter/marshmallow.

Add the reaming cereal and marshmallows and stir until everything is well coated (and sticky).

Scoop everything from the pan into the greased baking pan. Use a spatula to spread out and press the mixture into a flat even layer.

Allow to cool about 20-30 minutes.
Turn the pan over onto a large sheet of wax paper. Spray a large knife or pizza cutter with cooking spray and cut the large sheet into square.
