Instructions

1. Chop enough Mini Marshmallows so you have 1 cup of chopped marshmallows. Set these aside, you will add them to the Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats after you add the cereal.
2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan on medium-low heat. You don't want the heat on too high or you can burn the butter.
3. Add the Mini Marshmallows to the melted butter.
4. Stir the marshmallows so they are completely covered in the melted butter.
5. On medium-low heat, stir the marshmallows continually until they are completely melted. As soon as the marshmallows are melted, take the pan off the heat.
6. Add the Unsweetened Cocoa Powder to the melted marshmallow mixture.
7. Stir until the Cocoa Powder is completely combined with the marshmallow mixture.
8. Add the Rice Krispie Cereal and fold together until the cereal is covered in the chocolate marshmallow mixture.
9. Add the chopped marshmallows and fold them together.
10. Spoon the mixture into a 9x13" pan. You don't need to grease the pan, the butter in the Rice Krispie Treats will allow the squares to easily release from the pan.
11. Lightly press the mixture into the pan.  You don't want to press the mixture down too compactly, just smooth the top with a spatula or butter your fingers and pat down the top. Let the Rice Krispie Treats cool and then cut them into squares.
