Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare a bain-marie to melt the marshmallow mixture. Boil ½ cup of water in a small pot, placing a large heatproof bowl on top to create steam.
  2. Add ½ cup of unsalted butter and 6 cups of marshmallows into the heatproof bowl. Stir continuously with a whisk for about 2 to 4 minutes until melted and smooth.
  3. Remove the bowl from the heat. Stir in ½ teaspoon of salt and red food coloring, mixing thoroughly until evenly colored.
  4. Pour 4 cups of Rice Bubbles into a separate bowl. Quickly pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the Rice Bubbles and mix gently.
  5. Lightly oil your hands and shape mixture into ovals resembling brains, creating indentations in the center.
  6. Transfer shaped brains onto a parchment-lined tray and allow to cool completely for about 30 minutes.
