8 or 9-inch square baking pan (9 x 13-inch instructions included)

non-stick cooking spray
Ingredients
4 ⅔cupsRice Krispies
10ouncesmarshmallowsabout 40 regular OR 6 cups mini
4tablespoonsEuropean salted butter
10ouncesValentine's Day M & Ms
Instructions
I recommend spraying your bowls and spatulas with cooking spray.
First, spray your baking pan with non-stick cooking spray or butter or line with non-stick foil. You may also use lightly-sprayed regular foil.
Add the Rice Krispies to a large, greased bowl and set aside.
Place the marshmallows and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute on high. Stir, and microwave for at additional 30 second intervals, if needed. Stir until very smooth.
Scrape the marshmallow and butter mixture into the cereal and use a spatula to fold the mixture into the cereal until it's completely blended.
Stir in 1 heaping cup of Valentine's Day M & M candy.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Use a clean spatula to gently press the treats evenly into the baking dish.
If desired, sprinkle additional candies on top and gently press into the treats.
Let the treats cool very well and cut into two-inch squares.
