We had a bag of marshmallows that were getting stale and hard, so I decided to make some Rice Krispie Treats using the original recipe. Instead of sorting through my file cards, I easily found the recipe online at the Kellogg’s® website: www.ricekrispies.com. Normally, I would say they were too sweet, but they tasted pretty good, especially when we topped it with nut butter. I’m allergic to peanuts, so I use almond butter. My husband uses peanut butter, and with him working at home during the pandemic, we have been stopping mid-morning for a snack. These are great with coffee. And more filling and a bit healthier, too, with the extra protein. Plus, they remind me of happy days when the kids were little. What snack brings back good memories for you?
