krispies kitsch

My guilty secret? I absolutely adore Rice Krispies Treats. I packed them in my school lunches, and later on brought them in my office lunches, much to the chagrin of my more sophisticated colleagues.

As the British Rice Krispies box inexplicably lacks the original recipe, I now make Nigella's Marshmallow Crispy Squares,

minus the glitter and sprinkles, because one must draw the line somewhere! But I think my line may be about to move, as I've just stumbled across the Rice Crackle Cake:

Just watch this space come September!

  1. Can't you find an excuse to make one sooner - I can see it on your beautiful milk glass cake stand...

  2. Argh, I can barely stand it - all these cakes I want to make and eat, knowing that every single one means another hour at the allotment to work it off.

    I've not seen that magazine - is it readily available here?

  9. I've been making Nigella's recipe for the last couple of years, too.
    I wonder if the "cake" calls for the same mixture? Is it molded by hand, or is there some other technique? Do you think it's easy to cut?

    Very intrigued . . . may have to try it for myself!

  11. One of our best sellers at the caff is mars bar krispie cake. But I am considering going out to make a Donna Hay purchase this morning now!
