Rice Krispie Treats
Makes one 9x13x3 pan full
1-16oz bag mini-marshmallows (9 cups)
9 T. salted butter
12 c. Rice Krispies
Butter for foil (2 T.)
1.) Line a 9x13 pan with heavy duty wide foil. Melt 2T. butter in a small dish in the microwave (20 to 25 seconds), and coat the foil (bottom and all the way up the sides).
2.) Put 9 T. butter in the bottom of a non-stick dutch oven. Use rubber utensils to stir from here on out. Melt the butter over low heat until almost completely melted. Dump in marshmallows and begin stirring to coat.
3.) Once marshmallows are coated, turn heat up to medium and continue stirring until marshmallows begin to melt. Turn heat down again to low when 75% of the marshmallows are melted.
4.) Stir until all marshmallows are melted and the butter is incorporated. Turn off burner. Dump in all of the Rice Krispies.
5.) Stir to coat all of the Rice Krispies, and dump into buttered foil-lined pan.
6.) With a buttered rubber spatula, smooth out the top (but don't compact too much) and smoosh everything into the corners of the pan.
