Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats
- 14 cup butter or 14 cup margarine
- 1 (10 ounce) bag miniature marshmallows
- 2 unsweetened chocolate squares (2 ounces, or you can use 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa)
- 5 cups KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal or 5 cups COCOA KRISPIES cereal
- Melt the marshmallows, butter and chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, or in the microwave.
- Meanwhile, butter a large bowl and add the Rice Krispies.
- Butter a 9 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan, also.
- Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the cereal and stir to coat completely.
- Press into prepared baking pan.
- Cut into squares when cool.
- NOTE: To make owls or other shapes: Press the mixture into a buttered jelly roll or 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
- This makes a thinner layer which may be cut into shapes with Halloween cookie cutters.
- Be sure to choose the metal "topless" type of cutters which do not have too detailed a shape.
- Use a spatula to lift the shapes from the pan.
