Hilal Rice Crispy Treats

Ingredients:

  • 6 cups of puffed rice cereal (Rice Krispies or the generic stuff. Doesn’t make a difference. The marshmallow is the star in this recipe.)
  • 1 jar of Marshmallow Creme (it doesn’t contain any gelatin)
  • 3 tablespoons butter

Directions:

  • Spray a 9×13 pan with nonstick spray or grease with butter and set aside. I use a pan that’s 10×15 because it produces more pieces.  The treats come out slightly thinner but you still get a decent bite out of it.
  • In a nonstick pot, melt the butter over medium heat.  Add the marshmallow creme and stir to completely melt and combine with the butter.
  • Remove from heat and add the rice cereal.  Stir gently but thoroughly with a rubber spatula to cover the cereal completely.
  • Press into the greased pan and let cool completely to hold it’s shape.
  • After pressing the mixture into the greased pan, use the cookie cutter of your choice to shape the treats while the mixture is still warm.
  • Place the cut shapes on a sheet of wax paper to set.  Continue to cut out the shapes until you’ve finished the tray.
  • Gather the scraps and press together to cut out more shapes.
  • Serve it with tea or Arabic coffee Continue to do so until you’ve used up as much of the mixture as possible.e
