Rice Krispies Squares - No Sweet-Tooth Needed
- Ready In:
- 25mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
12 squares
ingredients
- 4 tablespoons margarine (Dairy-free, hydrogenated fat-free)
- 300 g marshmallows
- 7 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 cup salted peanuts (optional)
directions
- In a large pan melt the margarine over a low heat.
- Grease a tray that's about 9 x 11 inches and 2 inches deep. Also grease the spoon you'll use for stirring with and something like a cake slice.
- Add the marshmallows and stir till melted. Once melted continue to cook for 3 more minutes.
- Remove from heat and add rice cereal and any additional ingredients (e.g. peanuts). Mix till all the cereal is coated in marshmallow.
- With the spoon pour the mix out into the greased tray and use the cake slice to press the mixture into the tray.
- If the mix starts to stick to the cake slice you can grease it over top of the marshmallow already stuck on and continue.
- Any mixture left over can be put into greased ramikins.
- Allow to cool (they will stop being as sticky). This can be sped up in the fridge. I cut my squares apart with a large pizza cutter, but any knife will do.
- Squares can then be stored in a Tupperware container for around 2 weeks.
- For other flavours add one cup of any of the following: raisins, glacier cherries, cashews, dried cranberries.
- You can also add 1 cup of crunchy peanut butter after you've cooked the marshmallow for 3 minutes, and then continue as normal. These tend to come out very crumbly though still nice.

<br>Please feel free to honestly rate my recipes. I don't expect everyone to like the same things as us. I'd prefer any future Zaar members to have honest opinions to judge from before they take the time and effort to make a recipe.
