Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 (10 oz) package marshmallows or about 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon ube extract

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter. Add marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth.
  2. Add Ube Extract: Remove the pot from heat and stir in the ube extract thoroughly, ensuring an even distribution of flavor and color.
  3. Mix with Cereal: Immediately add the Rice Krispies cereal to the marshmallow mixture. Gently fold with a spatula to coat all the cereal without crushing it.
  4. Press into Pan: Lightly grease a 9×13-inch pan and evenly press the mixture into the pan using a buttered spatula or wax paper to avoid sticking. Press firmly but do not compact too much to keep the treats light and crispy.
  5. Let Set and Serve: Allow the treats to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Once set, cut into squares and enjoy your colorful ube-infused treats.

Notes

  • Use unsalted butter to control the salt level better.
  • If you prefer a more intense ube flavor and vibrant purple color, increase the ube extract up to 1.5 teaspoons.
  • For easier removal from the pan, line it with parchment paper before pressing the mixture.
  • Store treats in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to 3 days.
  • Microwave method can be used to melt butter and marshmallows in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, if preferred.
