Ingredients

25 g dried whole milk powder
113 g unsalted butter
280 g mini marshmallow
168 g Rice Krispies cereal
⅛ tsp salt
1 Tbsp matcha powder culinary grade is fine

Instructions

Prepare the pan:

Lightly oil an 8 x 8 inch pan and line with parchment paper sling for easy removal. If the butter stick you use come with a wrapper,save the wrapper. You can use it to help you press the rice krispie treat into the pan

Toast the milk powder:

Put the milk powder in a large non-stick pan you are going to use to make the rice krispie treat later. Put it on the stove over medium-low heat and toast it until it smells good, around a minute or so. Transfer to a small bowl

Brown the butter:

To the same pan, add the butter and put the pan back on the stove over a medium-low heat and let the butter melt. Continue to let it heat up until it starts to turn slightly brown and started to show some brown bits, about 3 minutes

Add the flavor base:

Turn the heat to the lowest and add milk powder
Cook for another minute

Melt the marshmallows:

Turn off the heat and stir in salt, matcha powder, and mini marshmallows
Continue to stir until the marshmallow melts, about 1 minute.

Mix in the rice cereal:

Add the rice cereal and stir to combine everything. Work quickly but thoroughly

Press and set:

Transfer this to the prepared pan
Use the wrapper from the butter you saved earlier or another piece of parchment paper (sprayed with some non-stick spray or use some oil to prevent sticking) to help you pack the mixture down into the pan, corner to corner.
Let it cool down completely to set before cutting

To serve:

Use a sharp knife to cut into 3 x 4 to get you 12 pieces. You can cut into 4 x 4 to get 16 pieces too if you want a smaller size treat
