Baked three cookie recipes in a row... I think I might have made some of my favorite Cranberry White Chocolate Chip cookies before I even started my martha stewart cook book venture. So... lots of cookies. I think we were all ready for a cookie break... we made Rice Crispy Treats! YUMMMM! One of my all time favorites! My mom, who by no means is a baker, used to make rice crispy treats on a regular basis. Especially if we were going camping, or a road trip of any kind. We used to eat them for breakfast. That's probably where I got my sweet tooth... I would eat the sweetest things for breakfast! I am not used to the hardy stuff... like eggs and potatoes! I would take a donut and a cup of coffee any day over eggs, toast, hash browns, etc.
Here's my rice crispy recipe:
One stick of butter
One bag of marshmallows
Six cups of rice crispy cereal
(I table spoon of peanut butter, optional)
Melt the butter in a big pot
Melt the marshmallows in the pot
(add the peanut butter)
Stir frequently so it doesn't burn
Take the pot off the heat and mix in six (or so cups) of cereal.
Pour in a greased 9x11 pan, use either a piece of wax paper or a spatula (I use the rice spatula) to push down the cereal, wait a little to let it set... cut up in squares and enjoy! :)
