My American friends may be wondering why I’m posting this recipe. Everybody knows how to make Rice Krispie Treats, right?? And if you don’t, the recipe is printed on the back of every box of Rice Krispies cereal sold, right? Well, as it turns out, not in Denmark. Though they sell the cereal, butter and marshmallows here, no one has thought to put them all together. I brought the treats to my son’s school for his birthday and the kids went bonkers for them! So Denmark, if I may, please allow me to introduce to you the very American Rice Krispie Treat.
Ingredients:
3 Tablespoons butter
1 (10 oz.) package marshmallows (about 40 regular size)
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
Directions:
- In large saucepan melt butter over low heat.
- Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
- Remove from heat.
- Add Rice Krispies cereal.
- Stir until well coated.
- Using buttered spatula or wax paper, evenly press mixture into 13 x 9-inch pan coated with Pam cooking spray.
- Cool completely.
- Cut into 2-inch squares.
- Best if served the same day.
But please don’t ever use Marshmallow Fluff. YUCK. 🙂 I just made some of these for the kids end of school parties here in Hamburg and some of the moms were so surprised! “What is making the rice krispies stick together?” “Did you bake them in the oven?” Seriously!!?? Who on earth hasn’t eaten these!! I’ll do my best to feed them to the world. 🙂
Looks like we have a mission Tara! Bringing Rice Krispie Treats to the masses 🙂
