  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 5 cups Ruffles potato chips (about 8 oz)
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the pan

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan with cooking spray or butter. Set aside to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt the Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Combine Chips with Marshmallow Mixture: Remove the saucepan from heat. Quickly add the Ruffles potato chips, stirring thoroughly to coat all chips with the melted marshmallow mixture. Break some chips as needed for better coating.
  4. Press Mixture into Pan: Transfer the coated chip mixture into the greased baking pan. Using a buttered spatula or lightly greased hands, press the mixture evenly into the pan. Sprinkle sea salt on top for a sweet and salty flavor contrast.
  5. Cool and Set: Allow the treats to cool and set at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour until firm.
  6. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut into squares or rectangles of your preferred size and serve.

Notes

  • Use low heat to melt marshmallows to prevent burning.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the pan for compact treats.
  • Sea salt enhances the sweet and salty flavor but can be adjusted or omitted.
  • Store treats in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
  • For a twist, consider adding chocolate drizzle or nuts if desired.
