Single Serving Rice Krispie Treats!

recipe from: number-2-pencil.com

I know, I know... Another recipe with rice krispie treats? Last one for awhile, I promise :) And this one is the easiest one yet! It's so easy that I'm going to have to make sure I don't keep the ingredients in the house all the time or it could be very dangerous ;) Each serving is about 300 calories. Even better idea, share it with someone and it's around 150 calories and so yummy! :) 

- 1/2 Tablespoon butter
- 4 large marshmallows
- 1 cup rice krispie cereal

1. Melt butter in a microwave safe bowl (about 20 seconds)
2. Add 4 marshmallows and microwave for about 25 more seconds. 
           (marshmallows will puff up a bit, they'll deflate once you take them out)
3. Stir melted butter and marshmallows together.
4. Mix in 1 cup of rice krispie cereal and stir until well coated.

I even took some inspiration from my strawberry shortcake rice krispies :)

S'mores Rice Krispie Treats


I know I've been on a bit of a rice krispie treat kick lately.. but I can't help it! They're so yummy and it's been fun to play with different kinds :) These are the perfect ones for the upcoming 4th of July holiday!

1. Line 9x13 baking pan with wax paper, or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix rice krispie cereal and graham cracker pieces. Set aside. 
3. Melt butter in large, non-stick, saucepan over medium heat. 
4. Stir in marshmallows, and keep stirring constantly until melted.
5. Remove from heat and gently stir in cereal/graham cracker mix. Mix well.
6. Gently fold in chocolate chips. (I think next time we'll make sure they come out of the fridge so they don't melt so fast)

A perfect treat for a hot day :)
- 6 cups rice krispie cereal
- 1 (10 oz) bag mini marshmallows

- 2 heaping cups of angel food cake squares
- cool whip 
- 2 cups diced strawberries

1. In a large bowl, mix rice krispie cereal and angel food cake squares. Set aside. 
2. Melt butter in large, non-stick, saucepan over medium heat. 
3. Stir in marshmallows, and keep stirring constantly until melted.
4. Remove from heat and gently stir in cereal/angel food mix. Mix well.
5. Pour into a prepped 9x13 baking pan, and press evenly.
