I am a HUGE peppermint lover. Whether it is in brownies, cheesecake, cake, fudge, frosting, cookies, candy or whatever, I will eat it. I was walking down the aisles at my grocery store the other day and I found some PEPPERMINT MARSHMALLOWS!!! So, what did I do? I threw a package in my cart, of course!!! Remember my Strawberry Rice Krispie Treats? With those, I add a little strawberry extract, because I feel like there isn't enough strawberry flavor with just the marshmallows, but with these peppermint marshmallows, I feel like there is a perfect amount of peppermint flavor, no extra flavoring needed! These are delicious! If you want to dress them up a bit, drizzle with a little white or milk chocolate! Yummy.
from: Jenn@eatcakefordinner
4 Tbl. unsalted butter
1 (10 oz.) package Peppermint Marshmallows
6 cups crispy rice cereal
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the entire bag of marshmallows and stir until melted. Remove from heat and add the cereal. Stir until completely coated and spread into a greased 9x13 baking dish. Drizzle with white chocolate, if desired. When set, cut into squares and serve.
Did you know you can make you OWN marshmallows?? Here is a link, and these are even the peppermint kind :D Yay! http://denverbargains.com/2010/12/how-to-make-homemade-marshmallows/
ReplyDeleteSeeing your rice krispie treats has given me an idea. I saw a bag of cinnamon bun marshmallows that would totally work in place of the peppermint (though I do love peppermint).
