Think outside the cereal box

Most everyone loves Rice Krispie treats. So why stop at the original. Go crazy and use any cereal you have and love. Also, there is no need to go by a whole box of something unless you need a lot of treats. Use what you have and adjust the recipe. You can use a couple of Tbl. of butter, 20 or so marshmallows and 4 cups of cereal.

Pictured below, is Trix Treats. I had a variety of treats on a plate and these were the first to go. You could cut a large square of these and wrap it in cellophane tie with a brightly colored ribbon. Bam, you have a little gift for a friends birthday, a treat for a shower, a surprise for your kids and much more. Add sprinkles or stack a few like a layered cake and decorate.

On the plate is cocoa puffs treats, Reeses Treats, Cherrios with mini M&Ms, Cornflake treats with chocolate chips, Trick Treats. Don't let the shape hold you down either. Roll them in balls, cut with cookie cutters or press into molds. Stick a stick in them, just go crispie crazy. Visit the Krispie homepage for fun idea's with Rice Krispies.
