Kellogg's Rice Krispies Treats

[omly]

So apparently Rice Krispy boxes no longer have this recipe on them. That is sacrilege! Is nothing sacred anymore? I guess it is because no body actually makes these themselves anymore or because of sales of their individually wrapped ones, but still!

I was talking to my office-mate MP the other day and discovered that he had never had one before. (He is chinese.) So rather than inflict store bought ones on him I made some to bring in tomorrow.
