Classic rice crispy treats mixed with matcha green tea powder and topped with black sesame seeds. This small batch of matcha rice crispy treats is simple, delicious, and shareable.
Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 10 ounces mini marshmallows
  • ¼ cup matcha powder
  • 4 cups rice crispies
  • Black sesame seeds
Directions:
  1. Line a 9x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the bottom and sides with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large pot, melt butter over medium to low heat. Once the butter has melted, add marshmallows to the pot. Smaller marshmallows are definitely easier to melt.
  3. Use a spatula to stir the marshmallows until partially melted. Add matcha green tea powder and stir to incorporate it into the melted marshmallows. Once the matcha marshmallows are completely, melt, stir in the rice crispy cereal. Add about a cup at a time to make it easier to stir.
  4. When all of the rice crispy cereal is coated, pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Press the rice crispies mixture down and into the corners and sides. Sprinkle black sesame seeds on top.
  5. Let the matcha rice crispy treats rest for about an hour or two before cutting into them.
  6. Slice into 16 matcha rice crispy treats.
