Chocolate Frosted Rice Krispie Treats (Dairy and Gluten-Free)

OK.  I realize these are not “real food” but they are simple, frugal and allergen-free!  Besides, I used Organic Rice Puffs ($1.63 per bag through subscribe and save on Amazon!).  That counts for something, right?

In my eyes, these are a great alternative to cake or cupcakes.  For me, cake is nothing but a vehicle for frosting.  Don’t get me wrong, I like Rice Krispie treats, but frosting Rice Krispie treats turn them into something special.

One of my goals as a Mom, is making sure Bella never feels left out and has alternatives to fun food.  Because these are so quick to throw together, I can make them at the last minute before running out to a birthday party or special event.  This ensures Bella has something special too.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp Soy-Free Earth Balance or your favorite butter alternative
  • 7 Cups Miniature Marshmallows
  • 6 Cups Rice Krispies
  • 1 Can Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free Frosting (I used Pillsbury which is dairy and wheat-free but not certified gluten-free and contains soy)

Directions:

1.  Grease a 9 x 13 pan.

2. In a large saucepan, melt margarine over low heat and add marshmallows.  Stir until completely melted.

3. Remove from heat and add cereal, stirring to coat evenly.

4. Scoop into prepared pan and press into pan with greased fingers.

5.  Frost and enjoy!
