These Ritz crispy treats are a magical mix of buttery crackers and buttery marshmallows, almost like a grown up version of the old school Rice Krispie treat. Sweet, salty, chewy, and a little crunchy—these are indeed a bit more indulgent than the original, but so worth it!
Ingredients
- round buttery crackers, such as Ritz crackers: 80 piece
- butter: 0.25 cup
- bag mini marshmallows: 1 piece (10 ounce)

Stages of cooking
-
Crush crackers finely into a medium bowl. Melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until melted. Remove from heat and stir in crushed crackers. Working quickly, coat all of the crackers with the marshmallow mixture.
-
Pour mixture into an 11x7-inch (3 quart) baking dish. Lightly coat the back of a spoon or hands with cooking spray and press mixture firmly and evenly into the baking dish. Alternatively, use a small sheet of wax paper to press the mixture into the pan.
-
Top immediately with flaky salt and sprinkles. Let stand 30 minutes at room temperature, and then refrigerate 15 minutes before cutting into 12 to 16 squares. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
