Half Batch Rice Krispy Treats

Nothing ground breaking here folks, just a reminder that we can cut recipes in half or a quarter if we don't want a large amount of food... I made a Half Batch of Rice Krispy Treats and patted them into a 9x5 loaf pan. I added some sprinkles because we ~were~ going to have them for my son's birthday dinner, but once again dinners are on pause because of the virus. This has truly been a year like no other. My Krispy Treats were cut into eight pieces, individually wrapped and I tucked them into the freezer to enjoy whenever I have a sweet tooth craving:@)

Half Batch Rice Krispy Treats-adapted from box of Great Value Rice Cereal
2 Tblsp butter
5 oz mini marshmallows
1/2 tsp vanilla
3 C rice krispy cereal
  1. Melt butter and marshmallows over low heat, stirring often.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
  3. Stir in cereal, coat well with melted marshmallows. 
  4. Press into a parchment lined 9x5 loaf pan. Flatten top by pressing it down with another piece of parchment.
  5. Allow to cool and set for an hour. Cut into pieces and serve.
Eat well and have a happy day:@)

  4. I love Rice Krispy Treats -- reminds me of making them when I had little ones at my feet. Now that I have grandsons I'll have to whip a batch of these delightful treats.

  5. Love the sprinkles Lynn! I feel so badly for parents with school-age kids...what a mess! My sister is a teacher and started back to school yesterday, face shield, mask and all.
