Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 90g (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
- 280g (10-ounce) bag mini marshmallows
- 200g (about ¾ cup) smooth Biscoff spread
- 180g (approximately 6 cups) Rice Krispies cereal
- 125g (around 16 biscuits) Lotus Biscoff biscuits, crushed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of sea salt
- Additional 1 cup (around 50g) mini marshmallows (reserved for folding in)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Tin: Line a 9×9 inch (23×23 cm) square baking tin with baking parchment, allowing a slight overhang on two opposite sides to act as handles. Lightly grease the parchment and any exposed areas with butter or neutral cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Melt the Base: In a large heavy-based saucepan or Dutch oven, gently melt 90g of unsalted butter over low heat. Keep the heat low to avoid browning the butter.
- Add Marshmallows and Biscoff: Once the butter has melted completely, add the 280g mini marshmallows and 200g smooth Biscoff spread. Stir constantly using a silicone spatula until the mixture is smooth, velvety, and fully combined, keeping the heat low to prevent burning.
- Incorporate Flavour Boosters: Remove the saucepan from the heat. Quickly stir in one teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt to balance the sweetness and enhance the flavors.
- Combine with Crispies and Biscuits: Add the 180g Rice Krispies cereal and crushed 125g Biscoff biscuits to the marshmallow mixture. Gently fold using the greased spatula until all pieces are evenly coated. Work quickly as the mixture will start to set.
- Add More Marshmallows (The Secret Step): Fold in the reserved cup of mini marshmallows gently with just one or two stirs to create pockets of softness that remain gooey after setting.
- Press into the Tin: Transfer the mixture into the prepared tin. Using the greased spatula or a piece of baking parchment, gently press the mixture into an even layer without compressing too firmly to keep the treats light and chewy.
- Let It Set: Allow the treats to rest and set at room temperature for at least one hour before slicing to ensure clean, neat cuts and perfect texture.
Notes
- Use unsalted butter to control saltiness; salted butter can be substituted if needed.
- Keep heat low when melting marshmallows to avoid crystallization and hard treats.
- Do not compress the mixture too firmly when pressing into the tin to maintain a chewy texture.
- The reserved marshmallows folded in at the end create delightful pockets of softness and provide gooeyness.
- Allowing the treats to set properly at room temperature is crucial for easy slicing.
- Using high-quality Biscoff spread and biscuits elevates the flavor significantly.
