Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan with cooking spray or butter. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until fully melted and smooth.
  3. Step 3: Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly add the Ruffles potato chips. Stir thoroughly to coat the chips evenly with the marshmallow mixture, breaking chips if needed to coat better.
  4. Step 4: Transfer the mixture to the greased pan. Use a buttered spatula or lightly greased hands to press the mixture firmly into the pan. Sprinkle sea salt on top for enhanced flavor.
  5. Step 5: Let the treats cool and set at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour.
  6. Step 6: Once set, cut into squares or rectangles and serve.

Tips & Variations

  • For an extra touch, add a handful of chocolate chips or drizzle melted chocolate over the top before it sets.
  • Use flavored potato chips like barbecue or sour cream & onion for a unique twist.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the pan to ensure the treats hold together well when cut.

Storage

Store these marshmallow chip treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Avoid refrigeration, as it can make them hard. If needed, warm slightly in the microwave for a softer texture before serving.

  • Use fresh, crispy Ruffles chips for the best texture contrast.
  • If mini marshmallows are unavailable, regular-sized marshmallows can be chopped into smaller pieces before melting.
  • Pressing the mixture firmly into the pan helps the treats hold together better.
  • Store leftover treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain crispness.
