I have posted a few of my favorite snack recipes. Even if I don’t make them, they were yummy to read as I put them here. Enjoy.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!

Smores crunchies
Tip: Spray your offset spatula with non-stick spray before pressing the RiceKrispies onto the parchment and again when you spread the marshmallow creme ontop of the Rice Krispies. This will make it easier to spread the Rice Krispieswithout becoming a sticky mess.
Instructions: 10 oz miniature marshmallows ¼ cup salted butter 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs 7 oz jar marshmallow creme 1 1/2 cups miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
1. Melt the marshmallows and butter in the microwave in a medium bowl for 1½minutes or until completely melted, stirring halfway through. 2. While the marshmallows are melting, mix the Rice Krispies and the grahamcracker crumbs together in a large bowl. 3. Stir the melted marshmallow mixture into the Rice Krispies. 4. Line a 10×15 jelly roll pan with parchment paper and spray with non-stickspray. 5. Press the Rice Krispies in an even layer to fill the jelly roll pan (or as Idid, a 13 x18 half-sheet pan that I filled ¾ full), 6. Spread the marshmallow creme evenly over the cereal layer and top with themini chocolate chips chips. 7. Place the pan in a 200F oven for 2 minutes, just long enough to startmelting the chocolate chips. Remove from the oven and spread the chocolate outin an even layer over the marshmallow creme. 8. Using the parchment paper, carefully roll the Rice Krispies treat into atight log. 9. Refrigerate for one hour and slice into pinwheels once the chocolate andmarshmallow are set.
Take care of yourselves.
