Step-by-Step Instructions

  • In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over low heat until fully melted and bubbly.
  • Add 4 cups of fresh marshmallows to the melted butter and stir continuously until completely melted.
  • Remove from heat and fold in 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.
  • Press the mixture firmly into a greased or parchment-lined 9x13-inch pan and allow to cool for about 30 minutes.
  • Melt 2 cups of chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring in between until smooth. Stir in 1 tablespoon of oil.
  • Cut the cooled Rice Krispie treats into squares.
  • Dip each square into the melted chocolate and allow excess to drip back.
  • Sprinkle optional toppings on the coated squares while the chocolate is still wet.
  • Allow chocolate to set for about 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for faster solidification.
