My First Post

After contemplating on starting my own blog for months, and after the inspirational blogs of others, I have finally decided to create and start my own. Despite how fast time flies by each day, I will try to maintain this journal as often as possible.

I made Rice Crispies about a week ago but I used butter that had been sitting in my mum's freezer for god-knows-how-long and had absorbed the smells of a Chinese-freezer. Unfortunately, when making the Rice Crispies, the cooking process was easy but the tasting part was uhmm.. let's say it wasn't what I expected! So off it went to Molly, my forever-hungry Labrador. I forgot to take photos that instance so I had to make it again. This is the result of my second attempt.

Chocolate Rice Crispies









Ingredients:
1/8 cup butter
150 gm marshmallows
3 cups Rice Bubbles
4 mini Mars Bars

Method:

1. Melt butter in a saucepan.
2. Add marshmallows and Mars Bars into the saucepan to be melted.
3. Stir thoroughly, making sure everything is melted.
4. Add in Rice Bubbles and stir until well coated.
5. Line a 9" tin with baking paper.
   
6. Transfer the Rice Bubble mixture into the cake tin and using a buttered spatula or a piece of waxed paper, press the mixture into the tin.
7. Cut into slices when cool.
   

Note: Baking paper is best greased with butter as the marshmallow may still stick.
