Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar, mixing until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until blended.
  4. Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt into the wet mixture, stirring gently until combined.
  5. Fold in the Rice Krispie cereal and mini marshmallows until evenly distributed.
  6. Using a 3-tablespoon cookie scoop, form dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space for spreading.
