Time 10m

3 cups COCOA KRISPIES® cereal
1 1/2 tablespoons butter or 1 1/2 tablespoons margarine
2 cups mini marshmallows (or 20 big ones)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter and marshmallows in the microwave on high for about 2 minutes (stir after one minute).
  • Add Rice Krispies.

  • Spread in an 8 by 8 square pan that has been greased with butter.
  • I put margarine on my hands to make the spreading part easier.

Tips:

  • Use fresh marshmallows for the best flavor and texture.
  • Do not overcook the marshmallows, or the treats will be tough.
  • Add the Cocoa Krispies cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture immediately after removing it from the heat, or the marshmallows will start to set.
  • Press the treats firmly into the pan, or they will be crumbly.
  • Let the treats cool completely before cutting them, or they will be messy.
  • For a fun twist, try adding chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts to the treats.
