Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 3 cups Rice Krispies These are the perfect base for your treats; the satisfying crunch is an essential component!
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant banana pudding mix This gives your treats that unmistakable banana flavor; try to use the instant variety for best results.
  • 2 cups milk Combine this with the pudding mix to create a creamy, dreamy base; whole milk will make it extra rich!
  • 1/2 cup butter This is where the magic begins; it lends a rich flavor and helps bind everything together nicely.
  • 1 package (10 oz) marshmallows These are the heart of the recipe; you want to use fresh, soft marshmallows for optimum gooeyness!
  • 1 ripe banana sliced Fresh banana slices add a lovely texture and brighten each bite with sweetness.
  • optional whipped cream for topping Because who doesn’t love a fluffy dollop of whipped cream on top? It adds a lovely finish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the banana pudding mix and milk until smooth and thickened.
  2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and immediately add the Rice Krispies, stirring until well coated.
  4. Gently fold in the sliced banana into the mixture.
  5. Press the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch pan evenly.
