Instructions:

1. In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the sea salt and stir until the butter is completely melted.

2. Add the mini marshmallows to the pot and stir continuously until they are fully melted and well combined with the butter.

3. Remove the pot from heat and quickly stir in the Rice Krispies cereal until evenly coated.

4. Press the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, using a greased spatula to evenly spread and press down the mixture.

5. In a separate saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

6. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil without stirring. Continue to cook until the sugar caramelizes and turns a deep amber color, about 5-7 minutes.

7. Remove the caramel from heat and slowly whisk in the heavy cream. Be cautious as the mixture will bubble up.

8. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt to the caramel sauce.

9. Allow the caramel sauce to cool slightly before drizzling it over the Rice Krispie squares in the baking dish.

10. Let the squares set at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cutting into bars and serving.

Special Tips or Variations:

- To add a crunchy texture, you can mix in chopped nuts or pretzel pieces to the Rice Krispie mixture before pressing into the pan.

- For a festive touch, sprinkle some flaky sea salt on top of the caramel drizzle before it sets.

- Store any leftover Rice Krispie squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
