Have you ever had a Rice Krispie Treat?

1 - For those of you who are Australian... A Rice Krispie is the same as a Rice Bubble. Same cereal, same branding, same silly characters, same manufacturer, etc, etc etc...

2 - A Rice Krispie Treat is perhaps one of the easiest recipies ever created. EVER. It's butter, Rice Krispies (Bubbles) and marshmallows. That's it. (Recipe follows.)

3 - Making Rice Krispie Treats is fun for everyone! Don't believe us? Just look at the kids! Last time we had Poppi and Hunter visiting with us - we had alot of fun in the kitchen!

"Swell, Dad. Thanks. How am I supposed to eat it if you stick it to my head?"
(And for you Americans... Check out how BIG marshmallows are here!!!)

We told you it was fun to play with Rice Bubble and Marshmallows!

Poppi Claire - Following in Daddy's footsteps??? Or just a fan of sitting on the counters? Hmmm... We'll let you decide.


The ORIGINAL Rice Krispie Treats Recipe:

Ingredients
3 tablespoons margarine or butter
1 package (10 oz. about 40) regular marshmallows
or 4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups Rice Krispies (Bubbles)®

Directions
