Notes

Tips for getting gooey, soft crispy treats:
  • Don't let the marshmallows boil. High heat will crystallize the sugars, making the bars hard instead of chewy. Keep the heat just warm enough to melt the marshmallows.
  • When melting the marshmallows, allow the marshmallows to melt about 95%. The little bits of marshmallow will give the treats pockets of marshmallow. Or add 1 cup of mini marshmallows right at the end before stirring in the cereal.
  • Gently press the warm crispy treats into the pan, so not press hard, or compact them.
  • Don't let the marshmallows to take on color.
