Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the salted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it turns golden and develops a nutty aroma (about 5-7 minutes). Let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooled brown butter with brown and granulated sugars, mixing until smooth and creamy (2-3 minutes).
  4. Add the egg and vanilla to the sugar mixture, mixing until well integrated (1-2 minutes).
  5. Gradually mix in the baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the Rice Krispie cereal and mini marshmallows gently using a spatula until evenly distributed.
  7. Using a large scoop, drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between each.
  8. Bake for 10-13 minutes until lightly golden at the edges and slightly underbaked in the center.
  9. Remove from the oven and sprinkle flaked salt on top. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
