Instructions
- Grease the bottom and sides of a 13x9 pan with some butter.
- Dump the bag of marshmallows into a large microwavable bowl (use a taller one, not wider one if possible because the marshmallows will expand and rise). Cut the butter into tablespoon chunks and add it to the marshmallows.
- Microwave for 2 minutes, or until the marshmallows have puffed up and you can see them above the bowl.
- Mix the marshmallows and return to the microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds. The marshmallows should bubble.
- Mix the marshmallows again and add the rice krispies. Stir well to combine.
- Pour into greased 13x9 pan and pat down with the greasy butter wrapper, or the back of a greased spoon. Let sit to cool and set. Cut and enjoy!
