Instructions

Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat.
Add the marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth.
Stir in the salt and vanilla extract.
Remove from heat and quickly mix in the Rice Krispies cereal until fully coated.
Fold in the chocolate chips while the mixture is still warm but not hot, so they partially melt and create swirls.
Press the mixture into the prepared dish evenly using a buttered spatula or wax paper.
Let cool completely at room temperature before cutting into squares and serving.

Notes

Use mini marshmallows for faster melting.
Do not overheat the marshmallows to keep treats soft.
For richer chocolate flavor, drizzle melted chocolate on top before cooling.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
