CHOCOLATE NUTTY CRISPY TREATS



Chocolate Nutty Crispy Treats image

This is a unique, highly-addictive variant of the traditional 'chocolate rice crispy treat.' You can do this 2 ways: Mix the chocolate chips into the rice to have chocolate throughout, or wait until the treats cool, then spread melted chocolate chips on top and cool for a hard, shell-like frosting. I prefer the latter...

CRISPY CEREAL TREATS



Crispy Cereal Treats image

For a no-bake treat just right for lunchboxes or after school, try this fun twist on a childhood favorite that goes beyond the usual "Snap, Crackle, and Pop" blueprint and plays with other great combinations found in the cereal aisle. Each of the four variations uses the same marshmallow base-whether you want to use the mix-ins to take it in a chocolatey, tropical, or fruity direction is entirely up to you!
