Ok seriously. Rice Crispy Squares are one of my favourite treats out there. I think it's because I LOVE marshmallows. S'mores..... everything Marshmallow. UNFORTUNATELY, marshmallows have ground up animal bones and other products (Like pig skin **sad face**) to create a main ingredient "gelatin". NASTY.
| I got inspired at the heath food store yesterday when I saw "Dandies" on the shelf. They are VEGAN MARSHMALLOWS made by Chicago Vegan Foods. I tried one and I am SOLD! They taste WAY better than regular marshmallows and they are healthier! No GMO, no Corn Syrup, No fat. Basic ingredients... love it! I also bought Earth Balance Buttery Spread Sticks (used 1 for this batch.. including to grease the pan a bit). And Nature's Path Crispy Rice. |  |
First you need to melt the "Butter" on low heat in a big pot. Next use the whole bag of Dandies and melt them with the butter until it is all smooth. Add 1 tsp of vanilla extract and stir in. Remove from heat and add in 6 cups of Crispy Rice one by one. Spread into a pan and let cool for 15 minutes.
I sprinkled a bit of cinnamon on top and it gave it such a great flavour!! These are really a TREAT.... not a cheap one either. Each ingredient was about $5 with tax making the pan worth about $15... but they are worth in for a special treat! ENJOY!
