A perfect cinnamon sugar and dulce de leche krispie treat!

Ingredients

• 4 Tbsp salted butter

• 6 cups (300g) mini marshmallows

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 4 cups (112g) Rice Krispie cereal

• 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar

Directions

1. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper

2. In a medium/large saucepan, brown your butter until amber brown with a nutty aroma.

3. Add your marshmallows and mix with butter until melted. Stir in vanilla.

4. Whisk together granulated sugar and cinnamon.

5. Measure Rice Krispie cereal in a large bowl, and pour your cinnamon sugar mixture and marshmallows on top, mixing together.

6. Spread about half of your Rice Krispie mixture into your pan, then spread a layer of dulce de leche on top. Top with the rest of the Rice Krispie mixture and gently press flat. Add optional mini chocolate chips.

7. Let sit for 30-60 minutes before removing and slicing.

Note: this recipe makes “regular” thickness Rice Krispie treats. If you would like jumbo treats, double the recipe for the same sized pan.
