Directions
-
T Molly McButter Natural Butter : Flavor Sprinkles 1 c raisins -- optional Pre-
-
measure the ingredients.
-
Melt marshmallows over low heat or microwave on HIGH 2-3 minutes until smooth.
-
Remove from heat.
-
Add Molly McButter Sprinkles.
-
Mix well.
-
Add cereal, stir in quickly until well coated.
-
Press mixture evenly into 13 x 9 x 2 inch pan coated with cooking spray.
-
Cool.
-
Cut into squares.
-
My notes: I put the marshmallows in a plastic bowl about 3 times their volume, thinking this would work.
-
NOT.
-
The marshmallows puff up unbelievably as they melt.
-
Fortunately, I have a glass tray in the bottom of my microwave, or I'd still be scraping and cleaning.
-
The marshmallows puff up about =6= times their volume so plan accordingly.
-
Probably because there's no fat in this recipe, it cools very, very fast - far faster than regular Rice Krispies squares.
-
There really isn't time to mix the sprinkles in =well=.
-
You have to really work fast.
-
I ended up with a thickish circle in the center of the pan which I pressed down to a circle covering maybe 1/2 of the pan.
-
I didn't add the raisins, and if you do, add them immediately with the cereal.
-
Also, cut it into squares while it is still somewhat warm.
-
It's almost impossible to cut when it cools completely.
-
All in all, it's worth it.
-
It tastes like the real thing, just a bit chewier.
-
Next time, I will probably try it with marshmallow creme to see if it makes it a little softter - and work really, really, really fast.
