Another awesome variation is to spread the mixed treats very thinly over parchment.(I use a buttered rolling pin.) Spread over this melted chocolate chips and peanut butter. Roll it up (like a jelly roll) and then slice. Yummy, , crunchy,chocolaty, peanut-buttery pinwheels! |

Do you have "Mars Bars" wherever in the world you are? I make these (with puffed rice or corn flakes) and melted Mars bars - delicious!! |

You guys need to be more precise. Puffed Rice is a very different product made in a very different process and would make highly unsatisfactory Treats. I believe Quaker makes the most well known brand of Puffed Rice. You must use a CRISPED rice cereal, whether chocolate or plain.
And please stop with the dioxin nonsense. The rates of cancer are not rising... our life expectancies are rising like crazy, and cancer is a disease of older age. Dioxin, as Victor Yushenko can tell you, causes some horrible skin symptoms, but really does not kill you. If indeed plastics were to blame for a horrible death rate, none of us born since the 1940s would have lived to be 50. Have you read the papers lately to see how many 100-year-olds are still around?
Please continue to use plastics. They are responsible for lengthening our life expectancies and provide for a much higher quality of life than any of our ancestors could even have imagined.

Thanks kd,
You are correct. Puffed rice is very different and I have updated the article now to correct this error. |

Any suggestions for those of us in parts of the world where you can't buy marshmallows? |

My grandmother has a recipe much like this, and she also has an interesting variation on it. Double the condensed milk/chocolate ratio, and insted of setting into fudget it will set into a very, very thick syrup.
Microwave, and serve over ice cream. |

You really need a better picture of the Kellogg rice krispie treats. I couldn't even identify the cereal in the bars. The cereal is mashed beyond all recognition. You might want the instructions to read, "toss"cereal in melted marshmallow till covered. |

re: Marshmallows
In response to the inquiries about marshmallow challenged environs, I have posted a new article on making marshmallows at home (without egg whites in case there is an egg safety issue in your location). |

RE: trademark infringement
We used to call them marshmallow crispies, sometime even if we used Rice Krispies.
RE: the comment about Mars bars
In the US, Mars bars are a chocolate-covered almond nougat bar. I believe they are something different in other countries. |

Don't get your hands messy. If you're having trouble with the rice krispies sticking to the spoon, run the spoon under cold water and then use the backside to flatten and smooth. (A large stainless steel spoon works nicely. |
