Rice Krispies Treats

[hole_n_one]

I'm preparing for a Christmas party and the recipe calls for 40 regular marshmallows, 6 cups of cereal and 3 tbl spoons of butter.

After having dumped out the required amount of marshmallows from the store bought bag, I'm now left with 25 regular marshmallows.

If I wanted to make another batch with only 25 regular marshmallows, how many cups of cereal and how much butter would I need?

I mean really, what the hell am I supposed to do with 25 marshmallows?

Maybe I should have gone with the string cheese instead

Get the Marshmallow Shooter -

It's capacity is exactly 25 marshmallows.

3 and 3/4 cups cereal....1 and 7/8 tbl spoons butter.

Theresa Heinz suggests soaking them in gin.

Didn’t anyone teach you fractions and the English system of measuring foods in school? Or are you trying to get someone to do your homework for you now?

Congress recently raised the mandatory retirement age of commercial pilots to 65 from 60, because there aren’t enough young people training to be pilots to take over for the retirees.

I suspect it is because of the math and science needed to understand aerodynamics is beyond the comprehension of too many of our undereducated young citizens.

If you get desperate you can always eat the marshmallows plain.

Don’t blame hole_n_one.

The subject probably didn’t come up in school.

[MARTIAL MONK]

The aerodynamics of a marshmallow? I think that was taught in the cafeteria.

Eat ‘em. There’s folks in Africa who don’t have marshmallows.
(the lucky ones)

Stick them in your cheeks and talk like Don Vito Corleone!

Eat five marshmallows.

Then make a "half-batch" of the recipe with the remaining 20 marshmallows.

Get some Hersey Bars and Graham Crackers.

Make some Smoors tonight

Rice Krispie Treats isn’t an exact science.

Use the whole bag of marshmallows, 9-10 cups of Rice Krispies, 3-4 T. of butter & a little vanilla.

Or store the leftover marshmallows in the freezer to use later in other recipes. I like to add a few to Waldorf Salad & there’s always 5 Cup Salad.

Got beer?

That’s wonderful! I love it when people think for themselves, and/or change the equation to suit themselves in the real world.

BTW, really cool FReeper page!

Get a can of white icing and make snowmen for the little folks in your family...

Use candy glued on with frosting for the eyes, nose, mouth

Moms will love you when their little people go ape sh*t after eating them... lol

pitch em...

Thanks! The praise is misplaced, however. My solution is based on my lack of willpower more than anything else. :P

Hide the left over marshmallows, by forming the mess you have created with the rice crispies, into balls and other shapes, with the hidden marshmallows in the center of them

Do not melt good chocolate to dip the marshmallows in, before you eat them.

Thanks for giving me a good laugh, it is a fun thread, for a very serious problem.

[Calpernia]

Trim the plates of crispy treats with some smores.
