The weekend again went way too fast. It started with bowling on Thursday night and continued with a night in on Friday, a busy but relaxing day Saturday that included couch shopping and Chipotle followed by more shopping Sunday.
Now we are already at Monday morning with no couch and no weekend left. Bummer.
The good news is that we got to share these tasty treats with the Sunday night dinner crew that came over for a pizza party last night. We made 4 or 5 different kinds of pizzas to go with roasted cauliflower, salad and cocoa krispie treats.
If you need a fast, sugar loaded dessert and you are trying to skip the basic chocolate chip cookie – make these.
Cocoa Rice Krispie Treats
- 2 T. butter
- 1 bag of little marshmallows
- 1 box of Cocoa Rice Krispies
- Melt the butter in your pan and add bag of marshmallows.
- Cook on med-low until marshmallows are melted.
- Add box of cereal to pan once it has been removed from heat.
- Combine marshmallows and cereal and pour (spoon) into a greased 9×13.
- Cut and serve fresh!
No little hands could resist.
I love cereal bars! I’ve been experimenting with the Kellogg’s FiberPlus(R) cereals so that I can boost the fiber content of the ooey gooey bars. SO good!
She just kills me with the faces she makes! I can’t stand the cuteness! 😉
Hope you guys had a great weekend – thanks for the email Friday, I loved the idea, just unfortunately had plans. ONE of these days we will get together! 🙂
yum!!! always wanted to try these treats with cocoa krispies 🙂
I have made them with Fiber One before and need to do it again! Great idea!
Yes! It will happen! Hope things are going well with you guys and the party was fun!!
Yeah, I’m thinking that the Kellogg’s FiberPlus(R) Berry Yogurt Crunch cereal would be perfect for this type of recipe. The blast of fruit and the bits of yogurt would really give it a delicious punch.
