Servings: 20 slices
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter I use salted but you can use unsalted if you prefer!
- 20 oz mini marshmallows
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp salt
- 10 cups Reese's Puff cereal I buy the family size box
- 8 oz milk chocolate chips
- ½ cup mini Reese's Cups roughly chopped
Instructions
- Line a 9×13 pan with parchment paper. Lightly mist with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. In a large pot melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, continually stir until the butter just begins to brown. The butter should foam up twice and then begin to give off almost a nutty aroma. Immediately remove from heat so the butter does not burn.
- Stir in two teaspoons of vanilla extract. The hot mixture will bubble up, so allow it to bubble up until the sizzling subsides. Whisk in the salt.
- Add in half of your marshmallows and mix until almost completely melted before adding the remaining. Stir until all of the marshmallows are entirely combined and melted. At this point, add in the Reese's Puffs, 2 cups at a time, and use a silicon spatula to fold until combined. Continue to add the Reese's Puffs until everything is evenly combined.
- Pour the mixture into the 9×13 pan. Lightly wet your hands and gently push into the pan to the edges. You don't want to crush it, so be gentle with it!
- Add the chocolate chips to a heat proof bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir and repeat until completely melted. Once it's ready, set aside for 3 minutes to chill down to room temperature. Using a spoon, drizzle the chocolate onto the treats. Sprinkle on the chopped Reese's Cups and enjoy!
