Rice Krispie Treats - easy to make in microwave

Everyone loves these. The proportions are pain though because you either end up with extra Rice Krispies or extra marshmallows. Only make 1 pan at a time. 16 oz bag usually has about 75-80 marshmallows. 12 c. of cereal is less than 12 oz box so will end up with extra cereal. 

Grease 13x9 pan with butter.

Measure out in giant bowl

  • 6 c. rice krispies (Next time I plan to increase to try to use up all the cereal)
Melt in microwave in large flat bottom microwave safe bowl
  • 3 T. Butter
Add to melted butter and mix to coat
  • 40 regular marshmallows (I only used 37)
Melt marshmallow starting with 1 minute hits in microwave and mixing between hits until you get a smooth mixture.

Immediately while marshmallow and butter mixture is still hot, dump in Rice Krispies, quickly mix and put in 13x9 pan. Pat flat with greased hands. Then let set up before cutting into squares.
