Peep Krispies Treats
Ingredients
4 tablespoons butter or margarine (divided)
4 3-ounce packages Marshmallow Peeps (in 4 different colors)
6 cups Crispy Rice cereal (divided)
Instructions
Prepare an 8-9" loaf pan by lining with foil and spraying lightly with cooking spray.
Divide the Peeps by 11s of the same color - 11 pink, 11 yellow, 11 purple, 11 blue or whatever colors you like.
In a deep, medium sized microwaveable dish, microwave 11 of the same color peeps with 1 tablespoon of butter on high for 45 seconds. Watch closely so the Peeps don't flow over the sides of the bowl. Stir butter and Peeps together until fully melted and incorporated. Stir in 1½ cups of cereal until fully coated. Press firmly, with buttered hands, into the loaf pan. Having several bowls ready to mix in really helps the process go more smoothly. Washing one while the other is being used. You don't want the colors to mix.
Repeat steps 3-4 with the other Peeps colors.
Allow to cool completely, around 2 hours, remove from pan, and slice. I cut the pan into fourths, then cut each slice into half.
