I just made this recipe (well, times four, since it was for all the ladies going to our retreat). And it was easy! I used my scale instead of cup-measurements, since it’s extra fast that way.
This is a quick, easy recipe for making a treat fast. So… maybe it won’t make “The Most Healthy Desserts” list. But…it’s a real crowd-pleaser.
This makes 12 or so bars, but I quadrupled the recipe for the large crowd we had a retreat.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb. marshmallows
- 1/2 c. + 1 TBS. butter (.28 lb.)
- 15 oz. box cereal minus 4 c. (.64 lb., or 6 c.)
In a large, microwaveable bowl, microwave for a minute or two, until butter has melted and marshmallows melt in as the mix is stirred. Use: > 1 lb. marshmallows > 1 stick + 1 TBS. butter
Last, add: > 6 c. Rice Krispie-style cereal
Butter hands, then pat mixture into 15 x 12” buttered dish (or cookie sheet with sides). Let set up for an hour or so, then cut into pieces.
