Ingredients
- 6 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
- ¼ Tsp Kosher Salt
- 12 Oz Mini Marshmallows
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- ⅔ Cup Protein Powder
- 7 Cups Rice Krispies Cereal
Instructions
- Prepare a 9×13-inch pan by spraying it with butter cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter and add salt. Use a rubber spatula to spread the butter up the sides to prevent the mixture from sticking.
- Add the mini marshmallows and stir over medium heat until completely melted. Remove from the heat and add the protein powder. Stir until completely mixed in.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the 7 cups of Rice Krispies cereal. Use the rubber spatula to stir it all together.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared 9×13-inch pan. Wet your hands, shake off the excess water, and use your hands to gently press the Rice Krispies into the pan. Don't press them down too hard, or they'll be hard to bite into! Let the treats cool at room temperature for an hour.
- Using the rubber spatula, remove the treats from the pan. Use a knife to cut them into squares and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Make sure you spray the utensils with cooking spray, this recipe is sticky.
