1
Prepare the Pan
Grease a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
2
Melt Butter
In a large saucepan, melt 0.5 cups of butter over low heat, stirring continuously to avoid burning.
3
Add Marshmallows
Once the butter is melted, add 4 cups of marshmallows to the saucepan. Stir until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

4
Combine Rice Cereal
Remove the saucepan from heat. Gradually add 6 cups of rice cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture, stirring until the cereal is fully coated.
5
Add Optional Ingredients
If desired, mix in 1 cup of chocolate chips, 0.5 cups of peanut butter, or sprinkles to the mixture, ensuring even distribution.

6
Transfer to Pan
Use a spatula or your hands (greased) to press the mixture firmly into the prepared 9x13 inch pan, spreading it evenly.
7
Cool and Cut
Allow the treats to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Once cooled, cut into squares or rectangles and serve.
