# Needed Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
02 - 1/4 cup salted butter
03 - 10 ounces miniature marshmallows

→ Filling

04 - 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
05 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
07 - 7 ounces marshmallow crème
08 - 8 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed

→ Garnish (optional)

09 - Whipped cream
10 - Cubed Rice Krispy Treats

# Preparation Steps:

01 - Generously grease a 9- or 10-inch springform pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
02 - Place Rice Krispies cereal in a large bowl. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter and miniature marshmallows together, stirring until smooth and combined. Immediately pour over the cereal and mix until all pieces are evenly coated.
03 - Transfer the cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Using a greased glass or spatula, press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides. Allow to set at room temperature.
04 - In a stand mixer or large bowl, beat softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Blend in marshmallow crème until incorporated. Gently fold in thawed whipped topping with a spatula to maintain a light texture.
05 - Spoon the filling into the set crust and smooth the top with an offset spatula or back of a spoon.
06 - Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is firm and holds its shape.
07 - Before serving, pipe or dollop whipped cream around the edge and scatter with cubed Rice Krispy Treats if desired. Release springform collar and use a warm knife for clean slices.
