Giant Rice Krispy Kisses


We kind of have a thing for rice crispy treats. And cereal. We love cereal. It's kind of ridiculous. But did you ever watch Seinfeld? Remember Jerry's kitchen and the huge array of cereal boxes he always had? That's our house =o) I love choices and you never know what kind of cereal you may want at 6am.

Anywho... my kids saw this Cupcake Pebbles cereal and wanted to try it. They liked it. Didn't love it but liked it. But add it to marshmallows and oh yeah. Good turned into delicious!


My kids weren't quite sure what I was making. They knew "rice crispy" treats but when I took out the funnel, they were confused.

Make up a batch of rice crispy treats (with marshmallows and butter).

Pack into a funnel for the shape.


Now wrap with aluminum foil.  Don't forget to add a tag.  It can say whatever you want.  We went with the very original "Happy Valentine's Day".


Your kids will love them!



Thank you Do It Yourself Divas for the idea!

I have the perfect funnel for making these. I did this once a very long time ago...guess it's time to try it again. Will be a simple 'light sugar' treat for my sweet hubby. Thanks for the reminder. You always have the bestest ideas!

Oh, I LOVE this idea! My husband will like it as much as the kids! I'm so excited...I can't decide if it should be an early Valentine's treat or if I should save it for next week! Decisions, decision!
