Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick things off, start by making the Rice Krispy treat base. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and mini marshmallows. Pop it in the microwave for about 30 seconds until it’s nice and melty. Once melted, give it a good stir until smooth and then gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal. Make sure the cereal is coated evenly. Transfer this mixture to the springform pan and press it firmly into the bottom. I like to use my hands, but make sure to grease them a bit or use parchment paper to prevent sticking. Everyone loves a solid base! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
