Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 6 cups crispy rice cereal
- 4 cups natural gelling agent marshmallows (plant-based)
- 3 tablespoons plant-based butter
Flavor Add-ins
- 1 cup plant-based chocolate chunks
- 1 cup crushed graham crackers
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the plant-based butter. Add the natural gelling agent marshmallows and stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and creamy, forming the sticky base.
- Mix in Graham Crackers and Chocolate: Quickly stir in the crushed graham crackers and plant-based chocolate chunks before the marshmallow mixture sets, ensuring even distribution for delicious texture and flavor.
- Fold in the Rice Cereal: Gently fold the crispy rice cereal into the mixture, stirring until the cereal is evenly coated but not crushed to maintain crunchiness.
- Press into a Pan: Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased or parchment-lined pan. Use a spatula or clean hands to press it down firmly and evenly for good shape and soft, chewy texture.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the treats to cool completely at room temperature before slicing into squares. This helps the chocolate set slightly and makes them easier to handle.
Notes
- Use fresh marshmallows for even melting and perfect sticky texture.
- Work quickly as the mixture sets fast; have cereal and add-ins ready before melting marshmallows.
- Press firmly into the pan to ensure treats hold together and slice cleanly.
- Try puffed quinoa or gluten-free crispy cereal for a different texture.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh and chewy for up to 3 days.
