Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 (12-ounce) bag vegan marshmallows
- 6 ounces vegan butter
Dry Ingredients
- 4 cups gluten-free rice cereal
- 1 cup gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Baking Dish: Line a 9×9-inch baking dish with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the treats once set.
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the vegan butter and marshmallows together, stirring frequently until the mixture is completely smooth and combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rice cereal, gluten-free graham cracker crumbs, and dairy-free chocolate chips, ensuring an even distribution of crunchy and chocolaty elements.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the melted marshmallow and butter mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly until every piece of cereal is coated and the mixture is evenly combined.
- Press into Pan and Cool: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly using a spatula or your hands to create an even layer. Allow the treats to cool at room temperature until fully set, approximately 1 hour, before cutting into squares and serving.
Notes
- Use parchment paper to easily lift the treats from the baking dish once set.
- Press the mixture firmly to ensure treats hold together well.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days for optimal freshness.
- For added texture, consider sprinkling extra dairy-free chocolate chips on top before cooling.
- If vegan marshmallows are not available, homemade vegan marshmallow recipes can be used as a substitute.
