Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt ½ cup of salted butter over medium heat, stirring frequently for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Combine the cooled brown butter with both brown and granulated sugars in a large mixing bowl and blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add one large egg and a splash of vanilla extract to the sugar-butter mixture and mix until fully integrated.
  5. Gradually sift in baking soda, salt, and flour, mixing gently until incorporated of about 20 seconds.
  6. Fold in rice krispie cereal and mini marshmallows until evenly distributed.
  7. Using a cookie scoop, place dough balls onto the lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-13 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers look set but still soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack and sprinkling flaked salt on top.
