    Why use Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®?

    As the first crisped rice cereal, Kellogg’s® Rice Krispies® has been bringing families together in the kitchen for over 80 years.

    To experience the timeless flavor, make your Rice Krispies Treats® squares with the original Rice Krispies® brand cereal.

    Where to buy


1. In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

2. Add KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.

3. Using buttered spatula or wax paper evenly press mixture into 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan coated with cooking spray. Cool. Cut into 1-inch squares.

4. Alternately thread cereal squares, marshmallows and fruit onto skewers. Best if served the same day.


MICROWAVE DIRECTIONS:
In microwave-safe bowl heat butter and marshmallows on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Follow steps 2 thru 4 above. Microwave cooking times may vary.


Note

For best results, use fresh marshmallows.
1 jar (7 oz.) marshmallow crème can be substituted for marshmallows.
Diet, reduced calorie or tub margarine is not recommended.
Store no more than two days at room temperature in airtight container.

I have a child that is allergic to peanuts, milk and eggs. She is 7 and has NEVER had birthday cake or ice cream, well, REAL birthday cake or ice cream. I use to make a soy ice cream and cake that she could eat but tasted like card board. I am & have always read every label of every item that goes in her mouth. Kellogg's is great for allergy minded parents...when I discovered that she could eat the rice krispies (I use a milk free margarine) I started making her birthday cake from 2 batches of treats in a big pan, I decorate with icing that I make and the other kids tell me they like her birthday cake better than regular birthday cake. I never have left overs....It is great!! She feels like the other kids & the other kids don't mind eating something that she can eat...a win-win situation. I now make all 4 of my children's birthday cakes a Rice Krispies Cake
