St. Patrick's Day Rice Krispie Treats
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 bag mini marshmallows
4 cups rice krispies
4 cups Lucky Charms
1/2 cup mint chips

Directions:
 
Line a 13x9-inch pan with foil; coat foil with nonstick cooking spray.

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat; stir in marshmallows until melted.  Turn heat off and stir in cereal until well combined.  Spread and press into pan.  Sprinkle mint chips on top; press lightly with fingers so they melt and stick to the cereal.

Cool completely.  Lift out foil-lined treats, place on a cutting board, peel down foil, and cut into treats.

  1. I didn't know Guittuard made "novelty" chips!

    You can use the remaining Rice Krispies as a coating for chicken or pork.

    Mmm, I used to really enjoy RKT until the time I OD'd. Although didn't puke, it was too much of a good thing. Nowadays, I enjoy them sparingly.

  5. I really would have thought that a chef would have monthly cravings for something fancy. :) Hormones win every time. "Junk" food is the only cure. (Well, junk food and chocolate and possibly rice crispy treats.)

  6. Love Rice Krispies treats! You'll find a creative way to use them all. Never seen Guittard mint chips. Where did you get them?

  7. These are so cute! I've never seen green mint chips like these. I'll have to keep an eye out! Totally would be worth the price :)

  8. Hi Emily! These look lovely although I must say I tried making rice krispies treat once and nobody in my household liked them very much. Here the price of B&J's ice cream is around 5 euros!!! I stopped buying it after seeing vegetable fat on the label. For that price I expect only quality ingredients.

    I loved the look of the blueberry oat pie you posted a few days ago :-)
