Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons salted butter, You can substitute the same amount of unsalted butter if you don’t have salted butter
• 6 cups mini marshmallows
• 1 teaspoon matcha green tea powder, plus more for topping
• 6 cups puffed rice cereal (like Rice Krispies brand cereal)
• Chocolate hazelnut spread, amount to taste, optional

Instructions

1. Prep the pan: Place wax or parchment paper in the 8x8x2 or 9x9x2 pan and clip the edges with binder clips or clothespins so it doesn't move.
2. Make the rice cereal treats: In a large pot over the stove, on low heat, heat the butter until melted, add the marshmallows (add 1-2 cups extra for chewier bars), and stir slowly until melted, add 1 teaspoons Matcha tea powder depending on how dark you want them, make sure it's evenly mixed and then add the rice cereal and mix until combined. Spread them in the prepped pan making sure not to press down too hard so that they don't compact. Sprinkle more Matcha tea powder over the pan using a sifter. Allow them to cool before slicing them into squares. When they are cool, cut them into 9-12 squares (or you can do a different size if you prefer) Optionally, you can spread chocolate hazelnut spread on top, for serving. Enjoy!

Notes

• Storage: You should eat them right away but you can store them in an air-tight container, at room temperature for up to 2 days.
