Equipment
9x13x2" deep pan
Ingredients
12Tablespoonsunsalted butter
2bags(16 oz) regular-sized marshmallows
1bag(273g) white chocolate chips
2teaspoonssalt
1teaspoonvanilla
15cups(424g) family-sized Rice Krispies cereal
1bag(312g) Ghirardelli white chocolate chips
Flake Salt sprinkled on top
Instructions
Prepare 9x13 pan that is at least 2 inches deep by spraying thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray.
Brown butter in a large cooking pot on medium-high heat. Melt the butter and let it continue to cook. It will sputter and splatter and begin to get frothy. Occasionally stir to check for browned specks on the bottom of the pan. After about 5 minutes, the froth subsides slightly, the butter is an amber color, and the browned specks give a wonderful flavor.
Now add marshmallows, 273g white chocolate chips, and salt. Continue to cook at a low heat; stirring constantly, until melted and smooth, about 5-8 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Without delay, stir in Rice Krispies cereal until almost incorporated.
Add 312g Ghirardelli white chocolate chips. Stir until completely incorporated. (see note)
Scrape mixture into prepared pan and press into bottom and corners with greased spatula or wet fingers.
Let cool completely, about 1 hour. Cut into perfect cubes.
Notes
The second addition of white chocolate chips should be added just before the Rice Krispies cereal is completely mixed in. The goal is to keep the white chocolate chips from melting completely. However, they may melt anyway. This will just add to the delicious flavor as little pockets of melted white chocolate will be dispersed throughout the krispy cube.
