## Ingredients You’ll Need:

- Salted butter

- Marshmallows

- Almond extract (for extra flavor)

- Rice Krispies cereal (or chocolate-covered rice krispies for a richer taste)

- Crushed digestive biscuits (or graham crackers if you're in the US)

- Silicon bakeware or a lined baking tray

- Chocolate (optional, for dipping)

- A blowtorch or access to a grill

## Step-by-Step Guide:

### 1. **Melt Salted Butter**

Start by melting salted butter in a large pan over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt completely and cook until it begins to turn nutty and brown. This adds an extra layer of flavor to your treats.

### 2. **Add Marshmallows and Almond Extract**

Once the butter is melted and slightly browned, add marshmallows to the pan. Stir them slowly until they’re fully incorporated into the butter. If you’re using almond extract for an additional flavor boost, stir that in now as well.

### 3. **Mix in Rice Krispies or Chocolate Version**

Next, add your rice Krispies cereal (or chocolate-covered rice krispies if you prefer a richer taste) to the mixture. Stir everything together until evenly combined. If you’re using digestive biscuits or graham crackers for added texture, crush them up and mix them in at this stage.

### 4. **Press and Chill**

The mixture will become extremely sticky as you stir, so work quickly! Transfer it to a silicon-lined baking tray or use silicon bakeware to prevent sticking. Use a slightly damp finger to press the mixture into an even layer—this helps prevent it from sticking to your hands or the surface.

Once pressed, chill the mixture in the fridge. While chilling in the fridge is ideal for setting, you can also leave it at room temperature if you’re short on time.

## A UK Twist: Squares vs. Rectangles

In the UK, these treats are often called “squares,” while in the US, they’re known as “treats.” To take things up a notch, we decided to make them twice as good by cutting them into rectangles instead of squares. This gives you larger pieces that are perfect for toasting on top.

### 5. **Cut and Torch**

After chilling, cut your mixture into rectangular shapes. If you have a blowtorch, use it to lightly toast the marshmallow topping for a caramelized finish. If you don’t have a blowtorch, simply place the treats under a hot grill until the marshmallows begin to brown.

## Final Touch: Dipping in Chocolate

For an extra indulgent treat, melt some chocolate and dip each piece for a rich, chocolatey coating. Sprinkle with a little extra something (like crushed nuts or sprinkles) while the chocolate is still warm for added texture.

---

## Additional Tips:

- **No Measuring Needed:** We understand that measuring can be tedious, so feel free to skip it! Simply cut your mixture into equal pieces by eye.

- **Blowtorch Alternative:** If you don’t have a blowtorch, the grill method works just as well.
