Description

I make them the day before and set them in a glass cake stand. Everyone sees them and they disappear like magic. The secret is to keep the batch small so they're fresh for your snackers.

Ingredients

  • 2 c rice krispies
  • 1 c reese cereal or nesquik or cocopuffs
  • 20 big marshmallows
  • 1⁄8 c margarine
  • 1 t vanilla

Instructions

Put margarine in a large saucepan and melt over low heat. Add your marshmallows. Melt, remembering to stir occasionally. Have cereal ready in a dish. Once the marshmallows are melted add the vanilla and stir. Add the cereal, stir rapidly and put in a greased 8x8 pan. A spatula is handy for scraping the pot. Work quickly. Put margarine on your fingers (which you have hopefully washed) and spread the krispies evenly in the pan. Push down gently. If you push too hard you'll get hard krispies. Hand out as breakfast on the run.
