GATHER & MEASURE

Ingredients

Marshmallow mixture

Cereal, caramel and finishing salt

Crisp rice cereal, mini marshmallows, two butters, caramel, vanilla and salt

Use thick caramel sauce so the filling stays in place between the cereal layers.

FROM PREP TO FINISH

Make it, step by step

  1. Mini marshmallows melting into browned butter in a saucepan

    Line the pan and melt the marshmallows

    Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment and lightly grease it.

    Melt plain butter over medium-low heat until it smells nutty and begins to color. Reduce heat to low, add cannabutter and marshmallows, and stir until just smooth.

  2. Crisp rice cereal being folded into marshmallow mixture

    Fold the cereal in off the heat

    Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and fine salt. Fold in cereal until evenly coated.

  3. A first layer of crisp rice with caramel drizzled over it in a lined square pan

    Build the two layers and add the caramel

    Press half the mixture into the pan with a lightly greased spatula. Drizzle with half the caramel, top with remaining cereal mixture and press gently.

    Drizzle remaining caramel over the top and finish with a very light pinch of flaky salt.

  4. Cut rice treats showing a caramel seam and a drizzle on top

    Cool and cut equal squares

    Cool 20 minutes, then cut into 16 equal squares.

Recipe FAQ

Questions about Salted Caramel Cannabis Crispy Rice Treats

Can I use a 9-by-13 pan?

Yes, but the treats will be thinner. Increase the batch or cut smaller portions.

Why are my cereal treats hard?

Too much heat or too much pressure when packing the pan can make them dense.

How should they be stored?

Wrap tightly at room temperature for up to three days; refrigeration can make them firm.
