Taking A Break…and Chocolate Rice Krispy Treats!

I feel like I’ve been away forever!  This last week was crazy busy, with a funeral, kids, and whatever else I was busy doing.  It’s funny that I can’t actually remember what I was so busy with, but I swear I was…oh well.  I’m back and I’ve got a no-brainer recipe here, but it’s sooo yummy and if you haven’t tried this version of rice krispy treats, than you have to!  It’s delicious and I can eat the entire pan by myself.  I try not to, but I could.  Easily.  A friend of mine made them for a church function and I fell in love.  I don’t think I could ever go back to regular rice krispies, okay I could, because they are so yummy as well, but these are a step up!  What could be better than marshmallows, rice krispies, butter, and chocolate, right?  Right!

Ooey Gooey Chocolatey Rice Krispy Treats
1 large bag (10.5 oz.) of marshmallows
1/4 cup butter
6 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
1 bag (10 oz.) milk chocolate chips
Melt marshmallow’s and butter in a microwavable safe bowl for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir until smooth.  Add rice krispies and chocolate chips and mix until blended together.  Place in 9 x 13 inch pan and pat down lightly with a buttered spatula.  Easy!
The best part of these goodies are the chunks of chocolate that don’t melt all the way, and you bite into the treat and it is perfectly chewy and delicious!
