It’s true…after I discovered the Cake Batter Krispie Treat recipe, I have been on the hunt for good deals on candy sprinkles so that I will always have them on hand. Just this afternoon I found some pretty, springy sprinkles at the 99centsonly store – about 1.7 oz for just under a dollar. Good deal, right? I thought so, too…that is until Megan bought me a box of these… Yep…a whole 10 pound box of the prettiest candy sprinkles EVER for just $15.99 for the whole box – Costco Business. Aren’t they beautiful? I feel an urge for some Cake Batter Krispie Treats! It could just be the beginning of a quest for desserts with sprinkles included. Who needs a ticket for Mega Millions when you have a box of these! I am the luckiest girl around! Thanks, Megan!
I’ll have to say that I don’t usually try a recipe as soon as I find one, but I was baking things for the school play treat table and came across this recipe. It sounded easy and yummy…and cute! I found the recipe here. Cake Batter Krispie Treats 3 Tablespoons butter 1 – 10 oz. bag miniature marshmallows 1/3 cup white cake mix – not prepared, just the dry mix 1 – 1.5 oz. container of sprinkles (Jimmies) – these are mixed colors, but you could use what ever kind you like 6 cups Rice Krispies Put parchment paper inside a 9″ x 13″ pan; set aside. Melt the butter in a 3 qt saucepan over medium heat; add marshmallows and stir, coating with the butter, until completely melted. Add the cake mix, a spoonful at a time, mixing well. Don’t overheat. Pour over the Krispies, and stir in about half the Jimmies; mix well. Press into the pan, sprinkling the rest of the Jimmies over the top. I butter my hands a little and then it won’t stick on my hands as I press the treats into the pan. I wanted the Krispie Treats to be tall, so I pressed it into just half the pan…you could use a smaller pan, if you like. When I’m doing something for a bake sale, I like to make the presentation nice. Taste is important, but
Light and fruity, these cookies are sure to bring a smile!
