just one question - crunchy or smooth peanut butter? i got both!

It doesn't say, just says peanut butter.



I suppose it's a matter of taste, I've only got crunchy so I may try it with that.

Come to think of it, I don't even have any normal rice krispies in, will have to have a go with the Tesco Choco Pops or whatever they are called.

:rolleyes:

If you have a B&M store they sell the tiny marshmallows (mix of pink and white) for less than £2, they are in a little novelty container with googly eyes, feet and a hat!

Due to chaotic foodstorage at the parental home, I have retrieved what looks like a whole packet of rice krispies which have been stored in an airtight container for a couple of years.

Mum doesn't want them to eat as cereal, I don't like to eat them as cereal, but they taste OK and I'd like to make something cake-ish with them. Has anyone got a suitable recipe please?

Lots of ideas on this site may have to go and forage some myself!

The one we used to use does not appear to be there, basically the same a cornflake cakes, melt butter/marg, sugar and cocoa or drinking chocolate, coat the crispies and them pack down into a layer in a tray or make into blobs in papercases.

I can't see the recipes for some reason, but if it helps, my mother used to make rice crispy cakes with honey and butter. IMO a more summery taste than chocolate ones.

great time of year to make choc easter nests. melt choc and stir in the crispies. put in bun cases and then add mini eggs.to melt the choc melt in a bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir.

You can smush them up and use them instead of breadcrumbs in savoury things too, for example mixed with cheese on top of pasta bake and then stuck under the grill.

Ooooh, thank you all. I detest waste and Mum was just going to bin them; that's 2.59 worth and I can't be having that!

Love the idea of nest of mini eggs.....might find some of them reduced after easter methinks.....never thought of adding them to something for extra crunch, that's a good one. Knew you peeps would know the answer, many thanks!
