Ingredients

¼ cup (57 g) unsalted butter
10 ounces (284 g) mini marshmallows
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
½ teaspoon kosher salt
6 cups (168 g) rice krispies cereal
¼ cup rainbow jimmies sprinkles

Instructions

Line 9x13 pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a stock pot over low heat, melt butter.
Add marshmallows, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt. Stir until marshmallows are almost completely melted. Remove pan from heat.
Add Rice Krispies cereal and sprinkles and gently stir until evenly coated.
Press cereal mixture firmly into 9x13 pan using a spatula. Allow to cool completely.
Use excess parchment around the edges of the pan to pull bars from the pan and slice into 2-inch squares.

Notes

Storage: Rice krispies treats will keep for about two days in a tightly sealed container at room temperature. Leftovers can be frozen for up to three months.
Make ahead: If making ahead, store rice krispies treats slab whole and slice the day of serving. Slicing and storing separately will dry out treats faster than leaving whole.
