Gourmet Salted Brown Butter Rice Krispies
Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 (16 ounce) package miniature marshmallows
  • 2 tablespoons bourbon
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 8 cups crispy rice cereal (such as Rice Krispies®)
  • 1 pinch flaked sea salt (such as Maldon®)
Instructions
1
Heat butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously, until it reaches a golden brown color and develops a nutty fragrance, approximately 5 minutes. Combine marshmallows with the toasted butter, lower heat to a low setting, and cook, stirring occasionally, until marshmallows have fully dissolved, taking around 3 to 4 minutes.
2
Introduce bourbon and a pinch of sea salt into the marshmallow mixture, then take the saucepan off the heat source. Add rice cereal to the marshmallow mixture and mix until it's evenly coated; transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish.
3
Cover the rice cereal mixture with a sheet of parchment paper and press it firmly into the dish. Remove the parchment paper and sprinkle flaked sea salt over the top of the mixture. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature, for at least 30 minutes.
