Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups Rice cereal
- 4 cups mini marshmallows
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¾ cup dried blueberries
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Vanilla Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a 9×13-inch pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter completely.
- Add marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
- Gently fold in rice cereal until evenly coated.
- Add dried blueberries and mix just until evenly distributed.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan using a greased spatula.
- Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled treats.
- Let glaze set before slicing into bars and serving.
Notes
- Chill time helps the bars hold their shape; you can refrigerate if you’re short on time.
- If you don’t have dried blueberries, substitute with chopped fresh blueberries (fold in gently but expect extra moisture).
- For a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar; for a thinner glaze, add a splash more milk.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
