How to Make Rice Puff Treats

Lightly grease a 9x12 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 1/2 cup (113g) of vegan butter or plant-based spread.
Add 10 ounces (283g) of mini marshmallows and stir constantly until almost completely melted.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Continue stirring until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
Gently fold in 4 cups (50-60 calories per cup) of puffed rice cereal until evenly coated.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Place a sheet of wax paper over the mixture and gently press down to flatten.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the treats to set completely.
Once firm, remove the wax paper and cut into squares using a butter knife.
