Cake Batter Rice Krispie Treats


Ingredients:
·         3 tbsp. butter
·         1 10 oz. bag of mini-marshmallows
·         1/3 cup yellow cake mix (the dry cake mix, not prepared into a batter), can be adjusted based on personal preferences
·         6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal
·         1 1.75 oz. container of sprinkles

Directions
1.    Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat and add marshmallows
2.    Stir until they begin to melt, adding in (dry) cake mix on spoonful at a time so it’s combined
3.    Stir in cereal so it is completely coated with marshmallow mixture
4.    Sprinkle in half of the sprinkles and mix
5.    Press into a baking dish (any size will do, I personally used a 9x13 pan) and top with the remaining sprinkles
6.    Let sit for about 30 minutes before attempting to cut.  It is recommended to spray a knife with a nonstick spray before cutting, but I did not do this when cutting and managed fine.


This recipe was really simple to follow and it really does not require that many ingredients.  If you do have to go out and buy ingredients because you don’t have the cake mix or the cereal at your house, depending on the size of the product you buy, you may have enough to make multiple batches of the treats.  I know that I have enough ingredients for at least one more batch because of the sizes that I’d purchased. 

Overall, if you’re looking for a variation on the normal Rice Krispie treats, give this a try!  It’s worth it, especially if you like cake batter tasting treats!

While I original found the treats on Pinterest, the actual recipe is located at the link below.  I can’t wait to see what else this site has to offer!
