Cooking Games: Rice Krispies Treats


Snap, Crackle and Pop – three of the best sounds when it’s time for breakfast or time for a treat. Rice Krispies treats are easy to make and even more fun to eat. Invite a friend over for this fun cooking game and you can make your Rice Krispies treats before settling down on the couch for a good gossip session and yummy, sticky treats!

Gather Essentials
To make Rice Krispies Treats, you’ll need six cups of Rice Krispies, one 40oz container of marshmallow cream, and three tablespoons of butter or margarine.

You’ll also need a 9 x 13 inch pan along with cooking spray or extra butter to prepare the pan.

Making the Treats
To make the Rice Krispies treats, begin by melting the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Then, add the marshmallow cream or 40 regular marshmallows and continue stirring until all of the marshmallows are melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove the pan from heat.

Next, add in the six cups of Rice Krispies in intervals. As you add one cup, stir the concoction well to be sure everything is evenly coated. When all of the ingredients are mixed together, scoop out the mixture into the pan which should be coated in cooking spray or butter.

Press the Rice Krispies mixture flat and then refrigerate. When the treats are hardened, cut them into squares and enjoy!
