Directions

  1. 1

    In a large, heat-proof bowl, toss together the Rice Krispies and 1 cup of mini marshmallows. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Spray an 8x8" baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a large, heavy pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. When it's melted, reduce the heat to medium and add the brown sugar, whipping cream, and corn syrup and cook for about 7 minutes, stirring frequently to keep the caramel from scorching.

  4. 4

    When the caramel is thick and syrupy, add in the salt and stir to combine, then remove from heat and add the 10 ounces of marshmallows. Stir until the marshmallows are dissolved, then quickly pour over the Rice Krispies and stir quickly to coat completely.

  5. 5

    Press into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle with sea salt. Allow to cool completely (allow in the freezer so you are then allowed to eat them more quickly) and then cut into squares.
