One of my students had a bone marrow transplant and is confined to a bitty room and is sick most of the time. I want to do a science/math experiment with her and she said she would eat cereal bars if we could make them. My dilemma...no stove or microwave and she can't have anything organic . Any ideas for a rice krispie treat with no butter or peanut butter? Wonder if marshmallow fluff would work.Kristihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14108237080369876801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-29237430130381188452008-04-22T07:30:00.000-07:002008-04-22T07:30:00.000-07:00Just wanted to let you know that your post is featured on <A HREF="http://www.blogher.com/happy-kitchen-experiments" REL="nofollow">BlogHer</A> today! ~ AKAlannahttp://kitchenparade.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-77120755952671954462008-03-26T16:12:00.000-07:002008-03-26T16:12:00.000-07:00Dawn: Never to late to add to the cereal joy.

Let it set in the refrigerator and the cut into bite sized pieces.

The Cocoa Pebbles Crispies were yummy and chocolatey, and the Fruity Pebbles Crispies were fruity, but the dye in the pebbles bled a little so that the color was a rainbow swirl at times. They were always gone quickly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-70084452216065775992008-02-09T23:25:00.000-08:002008-02-09T23:25:00.000-08:00Lloyd: Thank you so much!!<BR/><BR/>Angela: Thank you for solving that mystery! :-)Cakespyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11540351035366591645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-65604235292255710432008-02-09T15:56:00.000-08:002008-02-09T15:56:00.000-08:00For the foil packets of corn pops, here's why:<BR/><BR/>http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/mfoilbag.htmlAngelahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18259699316475299132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-59849969753454502682008-02-03T22:34:00.000-08:002008-02-03T22:34:00.000-08:00Referenced at: <BR/>http://breakfastbowl.blogspot.com/2008/02/cereal-and-bloggers.htmlLloydhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05305075469801037114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-32326686023328677472008-01-22T18:23:00.000-08:002008-01-22T18:23:00.000-08:00Sarah, Thank you!

It was magical. I had never had anything but dry and/or soggy (from too much butter) Rice Crispy treats before (and I just turned 39!), and I had never made treats before, so imagine my surprise at how well they turned out. I won't make them any other way now.<BR/><BR/>StaceyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-23705702775459995452008-01-18T05:28:00.000-08:002008-01-18T05:28:00.000-08:00What a great post! I am a self-confessed Rice Krispie treat addict. I rarely make them anymore because I literally cannot stop eating them until the whole pan is gone! <BR/><BR/>I have a great recipe for a variation of RKTs using several different cereals, including Fruit Loops and Cap'n Crunch. I was planning to do a post about it in the near future. Kids adore it! I still love the original best, though.StickyGooeyCreamyChewyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00156812413651058664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-89438749973136051072008-01-18T00:01:00.000-08:002008-01-18T00:01:00.000-08:00I'll have to try that with corn pops some day....

Clever experiment.<BR/><BR/>Rice Crispies work not just b/c of the texture but b/c they're not as sweet. I couldn't have handled marshmallows on top of all those sweetened cereals. <BR/><BR/>That's why I like Crispix, Rice Chex, or Corn Chex. They work well, not too sweet and airy so it doesn't get bogged down in marshmallow. Kix works too but not as well as the Chexes.Wandering Chopstickshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-38764924394703150212008-01-17T16:23:00.000-08:002008-01-17T16:23:00.000-08:00My personal fave is a combo I stumbled upon by accident about six months ago and have been making every since:<BR/><BR/>Alpha-Bits<BR/>Dried Orange Cranberries (Crasins)<BR/>Marshmellows<BR/>Butter (for the pan)<BR/><BR/>I love it so much, I mix all but the butter dry and cool in a big plastic cookie jar and take it to work as snack mix. I have even added mini chocolate chips to the mix at times as a substitute for the cranberries and sometimes as a fourth ingredient. All delicious!!<BR/><BR/>StaceyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
