The Woeful Tale of the Rice Krispy "Monsters"

This is the woeful tale of a cooking craft gone wrong.

I was with my granddaughter and we were both excited about making Rice Krispy snowmen.

Pinterest has photos of them and they look so darned  cute.

Now granted, it's been a long, long time since I made Rice Krispy treats.

Instead of melting the mini-marshmallows in the melted butter, I just poured the butter, marshmallows and cereal in a big bowl.   Bad move.

It was difficult to mold  them because not all the marshmallows melted.

Then it was nearly impossible to stick the M&Ms in for eyes and red hots for mouths.

I had to laugh when the two-year-old said, "These look like dogs, Gammie."

To me, they resembled monsters. 

No where to be seen were Rice Krispy snowmen.

In any event, the monster dogs tasted good so making them wasn't a total loss.

Hope you got your chuckle for the day!
