SUSHI KRISPIES
Basic Rice Krispies Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal 6 cups Shortening 3 tbsp (I use Butter Flavor Shortening from Spectrum) Miniature marshmallows 1 package (10 oz) (I use Jet Puffed Marshmallows from Kraft) Sugar pearls small Cat shaped cookie cutter Black food color * The original recipe with no food color will be lightly tanned color. *No peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat |
Basic Rice Krispies
1. In a medium size pot, melt shortening. The heat should just tickle the bottom of the pot. Don't try to make it quick.
2. Add the marshmallows to the pot. Stir constantly with a spatula. Do not raise the heat. Do this very slowly with patience.
3. When the marshmallows completely melt, add black food color. (You need a lot!) Stir well to have even color.
4. Turn off the heat and add rice krispies cereal. Stir and cover all the cereal with melted marshmallows.
Shaping
1. Spread the black krispies on a flat surface as thin as you can.
2. Press hard using cutting board to make the krispies flat.
3. Cut out the krispies with cat shaped cookie cutter. Work quickly as krispies get very hard as time passes.
4. Place two sugar peals as eyes.
Great idea for Halloween treat.
(Kids will have black lips!)
