What A Treat!

My neighbor and her daughter brought some fabulous grilled chicken to me today along with three Rice Krispie Treats.  A really nice way to celebrate!

I had these RKTs at a quilt class and gave Carol the recipe.  Yes, just as delicious this time around!  I think making them in a sheet pan is what makes me like them even more.  Most of you might know that RKTs are not my favorite, too sweet, too hard, and too thick.  Made in a sheet pan these are none of those things.  Yum. Yum.

Quilters’ Rice Krispie Treats – Cindy at Everyday Insanity
16 ounces marshmallows
8 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
3/4 cup white chocolate chips (or melting wafers)
9 cups Rice Krispies (almost all of a 12 ounce box)
1/2 cup milk, dark or white chocolate chips

Melt butter, add peanut butter and stir. Add marshmallows. Microwave stirring every 30 seconds until marshmallow are melted. Add Rice Krispies and  3/4 cup white chocolate chips, stir gently. Press into a buttered 9x13 inch pan. For a thin treat use a sheet pan. Melt chocolate chips--drizzle over top of treats. Refrigerate until chocolate is hardened. Cut into squares to serve.

The parade hoo-ha is over and now we are on hold for the firecrackers to start up around the neighborhood again.  Min gets another sedative in fifteen minutes.

(Terry said the H'mong folks in Fairfield call Rice Krispie Treats, American Rice and that they loved them.)
