Ingredients
  

  • 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 bag (10 oz.) mini marshmallows
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 ounces dark chocolate chopped
  • ¼ cup millet
  • 5 cups plain cereal such as Cheerios
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • flaky sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving the excess on the sides (to make removing the rice krispies from the pan easier). Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray; set aside.
  • Melt the butter over medium heat in a large pot. Add marshmallows and dark chocolate and stir constantly until melted and smooth. Add cocoa powder and vanilla extract, stirring to combine.
  • Remove from heat, then work quickly to stir in millet and cereal until well-coated. This will be messy!
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan, cover with a sheet of wax paper, and press (using your hands or the base of a sturdy glass cup) to flatten and form the rice krispies. Press as hard as you can - this is what holds them together! While the rice krispies are warm, sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  • Let set at room temperature for 2 hours until fully cooled, then use the excess parchment paper to remove the rice krispies from the pan. Cut into 16 squares and serve.
