Sweet and Salty No Bake Marshmallow Bars for a Crowd

A little salty and lots of white chocolate sweetness make these no-bake bars an easy, make-ahead treat.

Ingredients

• 4 cups Rice Chex Cereal (4.5 ounces)
• 2 cups Original Cheerios (2 ounces)
• 1 1/2 cups mini pretzels (2.5 ounces)
• 1/4 teaspoon table salt
• 4 tablespoons butter
• Cooking spray
• 1/3 teaspoon kosher salt
• 11 ounces white chocolate chips, divided (7 ounces + 4 ounces)
• 10 ounces mini marshmallows

Equipment

• 9″ x 13″ baking dish

Instructions

1. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, toss together the Rice Chex, Cheerios, and pretzels; set aside.
3. Place the butter in a very large microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds or until melted. Add 11 ounces of the white chocolate, 1/4 teaspoon table salt, and all the marshmallows. Stir to combine and microwave in 30-second increments for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth.
4. Stir until smooth, then immediately add the cereal mixture. Quickly fold until the cereal is completely coated.
5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press in evenly. Sprinkle kosher salt over the top.
6. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the remaining 4 ounces of white chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring after each interval, until melted.
7. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the bars.
8. Let cool completely (about 1 hour), then cut into 18 squares.
