Vanilla Bourbon Rice Krispie Treats

Prep Time 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • c butter
  • 14 c mini marshmallows (2 bags of 10 oz)
  • c bourbon
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 12 c Rice Krispies (12 oz box)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare your pan with parchment paper, butter, or oil.
  • Brown your butter:
    Add butter to a large pot and place over medium heat. The butter will begin to crackle, and start to foam. Whisk constantly during at this point. After a couple of minutes, the butter will begin turn a golden amber color on the bottom of the saucepan. 
  • Once the butter browns add 10 cups (or 1½ bags) of the marshmallows to the pot. Stir the butter and marshmallows until the marshmallows are fully melted. This takes about 5 minutes (but can vary depending on you marshmallows).
  • Add bourbon, vanilla, and nutmeg. Let the mixture come to a slow boil. Remove from heat.
  • Add Rice Krispies and coat thoroughly.
  • Add remaining marshmallows. They should melt partially from the heat of the mixture. But still leave a few gooey chunks.
  • Pour rice krispie mixture into you prepared pan.
  • Let your Rice Krispie Treats stand for a least an hour to fully cool and set up.
    Enjoy!
