Ingredients

• 4 Tbsp vegan butter (a bit more or less as desired)
• 10oz. vegan marshmallows
• 6 cups brown rice crisp cereal (vegan)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

1. Warm a large soup pot over hight heat.
2. Add in the vegan butter and melt. Then stir in the marshmallows.
3. Stir briskly to melt marshmallows. When they are about half melted with just a few clumps, you can stir in the cinnamon and vanilla.
4. Turn off heat on stove and fold in the rice cereal. Fold and lightly smash some of the cereal. Fold for 2 minutes to fully coat the cereal in marshmallows.
5. Line a square glass dish, 9×9 inch works well, with parchment paper.
6. Scoopy the cereal mix into the pan – all of it, for thick treats! Using another sheet of parchment in between your hand and the treats, press down firmly to flatten treats in dish.
7. Allow at least ten minutes cooling time for soft serve treats, warm and gooey. Or place in fridge to fully harden up. Stiore leftovers on counter for up to a day, or store in fridge for up to 3-4 days — treats wil dry out as time passes. Best same or next day.
