Classic Rice Crispy Treats

I haven't eaten a "real" marshmallow since I was a kid. This classic recipe from Fettlevegan.com uses vegan marshmallows (Dandies) that are just like the real thing!

I've already posted a vegan rice crispy treat that uses flax and nut butter.  This classic recipe isn't as healthy but it's definitely a fun treat.
  
Ingredients:
  • 6 cups crisped rice cereal
  • 1-10 oz. bag Dandies marshmallows (vanilla)
  • 3 tablespoons Earth Balance butter (or other vegan butter)
 
Instructions:
  1. Lightly grease a 13x9 in. (or slightly smaller) glass or ceramic baking dish.
  2. In a large saucepan on low to medium heat, melt your butter. Add the entire bag of marshmallows to the melted butter and stir.
  3. Once the marshmallows have completely softened and combined with the butter, add in the crisped rice cereal. Add a cup or so at a time with a wooden spoon to evenly distribute. Be sure to stir quickly so you don't end up with a giant clump. 
  4. Once the cereal is evenly covered in the marshmallow mixture, press into the prepared baking dish using the back of a wooden spoon.
  5. Let cool, then cut into squares.
