Easy Buttery Rice Crispy Treats

I promise you these rice crispie treats are the easiest things you'll ever make and they are
ah-mazing!! I'd like to say that these are healthy, but let me tell you that all good things have either flour, sugar, or lots of butter.  You my friends are lucky because this recipe has TWO of them!!

Have you ever tasted a rice crispy treat that's hard and dry (shudder)? Seriously, that's the worst. I'd rather eat a nasty pre-packaged one! This recipe involves a microwave...no "double broiler" here. You will not have an over cooked hard rice crispie treat!

​Step-by-step

​In a large microwave safe bowl add 2 bags mini marshmallows and 1 1/2 cubes semi melted butter.

The pictures below are at 1 minute, 2 minute, and 3 minutes. Three minutes in my microwave is perfect. The butter will not be incorporated so fold the mixture together until the are completely mixed. If you don't the butter will make the crispies tough.
