Ingredients:
· 5 c. of Rice Krispies cereal

Measure out 5 c. of Rice Krispie cereal and put into a mixing bowl and set aside.



Melt 1/4 c. of butter in saucepan over low heat. After butter is melted, pour in the 4 c. of mini marshmallows and stir continuously until butter and marshmallows are completely melted.
