Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 5 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 7 cups mini marshmallows, divided
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
  • 1 ½ cup Cadbury mini eggs, chopped & divided
  • 1 cup white chocolate candy melts

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dish: Butter or spray the inside of a 9×9 baking dish with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add 6 cups of the mini marshmallows. Reduce heat to low and stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat immediately.
  3. Add Flavoring and Salt: Stir in the vanilla extract and kosher salt thoroughly into the melted marshmallow mixture.
  4. Combine Cereal and Marshmallows: Add the Rice Krispie cereal and the remaining 1 cup of marshmallows to the saucepan. Gently stir until everything is well combined, ensuring the cereal is coated but the mini marshmallows do not fully melt.
  5. Fold in Mini Eggs: Add 1 cup of chopped mini eggs and gently fold them into the mixture, taking care not to break them up too much to keep their shape intact.
  6. Press into Pan: Using a buttered spatula, gently press the Rice Krispie mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Set aside to cool slightly.
  7. Melt White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate candy melts in a small microwave-safe bowl. Melt in short 15-second bursts in the microwave, stirring well between bursts until smooth.
  8. Drizzle and Top: Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the Rice Krispie mixture in the pan. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of chopped mini eggs over the chocolate.
  9. Set Bars: Allow the bars to set at room temperature for 1 hour, so the chocolate hardens and the treats firm up securely.
  10. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut the treats into 9 large bars or 18 smaller bars as desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • To prevent sticking, be sure to butter or spray the baking dish well.
  • When melting marshmallows, stir continuously and keep the heat low to avoid scorching.
  • Fold in mini eggs gently to prevent melting or breaking.
  • For easier cutting, use a sharp, buttered knife to slice the treats.
  • Store leftover treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days for best freshness.
