Description
A delicious and easy recipe for Honeycomb Marshmallow Treats that combines crispy rice cereal, mini marshmallows, honey, and peanut butter.
Ingredients
- 3 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup honey
- 1/2 cup unsweetened peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Cooking spray or butter (for greasing)
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine honey and peanut butter over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and begins to bubble, about 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
- Add the mini marshmallows to the mixture and stir until they are completely melted and combined.
- Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal until evenly coated.
- Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. Pour the mixture into the dish and press it down evenly with a spatula.

Notes
- For a chocolatey twist, drizzle melted chocolate over the top before cooling.
- You can also substitute almond butter for peanut butter for a nut-free version.
