Ingredients

• 6 Tablespoons Butter (or coconut oil)
• 16 ounces Marshmallows
• 1 1/2 cups Andes Mint Baking Chips, divided use
• 8 cups Crispy Rice Cereal (use a Gluten Free variety, if needed)

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare a 9x13-inch pan by lining with foil, leaving some overhang on the ends, and spraying generously with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large pot or deep skillet, melt butter and marshmallows over low heat, stirring occasionally. When marshmallows are almost melted, stir in 1 cup of the Andes Baking Chips, and allow the marshmallows and mint chips to completely melt together.
Place the Crispy Rice Cereal into a very large bowl. Pour the melted minty marshmallows over the cereal, and gently stir until all cereal is evenly coated. Allow mixture to sit for 2-3 minutes to slightly cool.
Lightly press mixture into prepared baking pan (using greased hands or a greased spatula). Top with remaining ½ cup Andes Baking Chips and lightly press them into the top of the treats.
Allow to fully cool (about 1 hour) before cutting into squares.
Store treats in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Makes 15-18 treats
