What would a collection of my family's favorite recipes be without rice krispy treats? These are always a good dessert stand-by. . . . We always seem to have the ingredients on hand.RICE KRIPSY TREATS
3 Tbs butter
4 cups mini marshmallows (or a 10 oz package)
6 cups crisped rice cereal
In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Add cereal. And mix until well coated. Press mixture into 13 x 9 x 2-inch greased pan. Cool. Cut into 2-inch squares. Best if served the same day.
NOTES: I use my hands to press the mixture into the pan. If you wet your hands with water first, the mixture won't stick to them. :)
This is a classic family treat! Have you used a cookie cutter to make some fun shapes? If you like peanut butter, I've got a great recipe for peanut butter rice krispies...
ReplyDeleteWe have used cookie cutters at Christmas to make trees and wreaths, dying the marshmallow mixture green of course. And YES! I love peanut butter. Yum!!! I would love to try your recipe.
