Howdy folks. The Duke and I hopped on a plane yesterday and are enjoying life in San Francisco. We’ll be here until Wednesday and I couldn’t be any more excited. We’re doing all the tourist stuff here (Alcatraz, Pier 39, Trolly cars, etc.) and even heading up to Napa for a day. This was my birthday gift (which was back in August), so I’m going to milk the Duke for all that he’s worth this weekend
I’m worth it, right??!
Anyway, now that school is out for break, I’m sure you’re all knee-deep in holiday baking. Here’s another quick and delicious rice crispy treat recipe. The kids can certainly help with this one, so bring ‘em into the kitchen and get cooking!
Toffee Pecan Crispies
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp. butter
- 1 bag mini marshmallows
- 6 cups Rice Crispies
