Rice Krispie Treats With A Twist

November 19, 2010

Do you remember Boo Berry Cereal?

They still make it, if you do.  I bought some for Meeshie because she asked me to.  someone got her hooked on Lucky Charms and this cereal is similar.  The problem is she didn’t like it.  Probably because it doesn’t really taste like blueberries.

I, of course, didn’t want to waste the cereal and figured there had to be a way to make something with it.

There is.  Rice krispie treats.

I love rice krispie treats.  I’ve made them with peanut butter.  I’ve made them with white chocolate.  I’ve made them shaped like a wreath with a licorice bow at Christmas.

This time I added almond extract.

So good.

Boo Berry Treats

  • 1/4 C Butter
  • 1-10 oz bag of large Marshmallows or 3 C mini Marshmallows
  • 1 t Almond extract
  • 6 C Cereal

Heat butter in pan until melted on low heat.  Add marshmallows and melt.  Remove from heat and add almond extract.  Stir well and add cereal.  Place in 9×13 greased pan.  Spread with hands.  Let set and cut into squares.

  1. I do this with corn flakes and make wreaths at Christmas. I color the marshmallow “goo” with green food coloring when I add the almond extract. Then I add cinnamon candies for holly.
