Caramel Marshmallow Rice Krispie Squares

12 oz Rice Krispies

1 can sweetened condensed milk

2 large packages mini marshmallows

1 cube butter

1 pkg wrapped caramels (about 10 oz)

 

1. Butter or spray bottom of large cookie sheet.

2. Place Rice Krispies in a large mixing bowl.

3. Unwrap caramel and mix with sweetened condensed milk in a heavy pan. Cook until caramel pulls away from the sides and bottom of the pan (there will still be "chunks" of caramel . . .so yummy in the finished product!). Set aside

4. In another heavy pan melt butter and add 1 and 1/2 bags of marshmallows. Stir until completely melted and pour over rice krispies and stir.

5. Take 1/2 of the rice krispie mixture and press into the bottom of the greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 bag of marshmallows over rice krispies. Pour and spread caramel mixture over marshmallows (are your mouths watering yet?).

6. Top with remaining rice krispies by taking a spatula sprayed with cooking spray to spread more easily.

7. Cool and cut into gigantic squares. But let's be realistic here . . you're not going to be able to wait. Just dive in.
