Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing pan and hands.

1 (10-ounce) package mini marshmallows

2 to 3 tablespoons instant coffee or instant espresso

6 cups rice cereal (recommended: Rice Krispies)

Lightly butter an 8-inch square pan.

Directions

In a large pot, melt the butter over very low heat.

Stir in the marshmallows, getting them all coated with the butter.

Slowly melt the marshmallows, stirring frequently.

When the marshmallows are melted and smooth, remove the pan from the heat.

Stir in the instant coffee (2 tablespoons for a rich coffee flavor, 3 tablespoons for a real kick) and mix until it is dissolved into the melted marshmallow.

Gently fold in the rice cereal.

When it is completely coated, lightly press the mixture into the prepared pan with your buttered hands.

When cool, cut the treats into bars and serve.

I love this idea, but have a question - do you use the instant coffee/espresso in powder form or reconstituted?

These sound wonderful. I imagine the coffee kick would be wonderful with the melted marshmallow.
And easy too!! Double delight.

This looks really good, but you should remove the recommendation for Rice Krispies, as they contain gluten (barley malt). Plenty of GF versions available, though, in natural food shops!

Koala Krisps which is a gluten free cereal are what I use in replace of Rice Krispies Cereal. Great recipes, will be making this! I'm not suppose to drink Coffee but in this case as I'm not really drinking it i'm going to sneak it in.
