Brown Butter Mummy Rice Krispie Treats

 

Ingredients

5 cups crispy rice cereal, such as Rice Krispies

1/3 cup unsalted butter

1 (16-ounce) bag bag marshmallows

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 pinch salt

2 cups white chocolate chips

1 teaspoon coconut oil

sprinkle googly eyes

Preparation

1.Line a 9- by 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper on all sides and grease the parchment with cooking spray. Pour the cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside.

2.In a large pot, brown the butter over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter begins to foam and turns a golden brown, emitting a nutty aroma. Add in the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until the marshmallows melt completely. Remove from the heat immediately and add the vanilla extract and salt. Stir to combine.

3.Pour the melted marshmallow into the bowl with the cereal. Use the spatula to fold together until evenly combined.

4.Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan. Rinse off your spatula, then use it (still a little bit wet, this will help) to pat the mixture into an even layer. Place in the fridge to set for 20 minutes, then remove and cut into 12 rectangles.

5.In a microwave safe bowl, melt the white chocolate and coconut oil in 15 second increments, stirring in between each. Repeat until completely melted and smooth.

6.Dip your Rice Krispie treats about 2/3 of the way in the white chocolate to coat evenly. Place your googly eye sprinkles.

7.Spoon the leftover white chocolate into a piping bag and snip off the end to make a small hole. Drizzle the treats with more white chocolate over the top to make them look like mummies. Place in the fridge to set for 20 minutes. Enjoy!
