Emeril's There's a Chef in My Family!: Recipes to Get Everybody Cooking

Author Notes:

Looking for something fun to do in the kitchen with mom or dad? Make rice krispy kisses in a giant size for your favorite person!Â

This easy kid's cooking recipe is from Beau Tilley and his mom Kim.

Ingredients:

Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
1 package (10 ounces) marshmallows, mini or regular size (4 cups total)
5 cups Rice Krispies cereal (regular or chocolate flavor)

You will need:
large bowl
spoon
cooking spray or oil/shortening
foil
piece of thin cardboard
scissors
waxed paper
plate
2 baggies
paper
felt-tipped pen
an adult to help you

Instructions:

1. Spray microwave-safe, large mixing bowl with cooking spray so mixture won't stick. Place marshmallows and margarine in bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Mix well.

2. Microwave on high for one minute more and then stir. Be careful not to burn yourself on the hot marshmallow-margarine mix. Get an adult to help you.

3. Add cereal and stir until coated. Let mixture cool for a few minutes while you make base of big kiss.

4. Trace a plate onto piece of thin cardboard and cut out. Trace again on waxed paper and cut out.

6. Spray two baggies with cooking spray and place on hands (cooking spray side out!) . Place cooled krispy mix onto waxed paper and cardboard circles and shape into kiss. The baggies will keep your hands from getting yucky.

7.When you've shaped your kiss the way you like it, spray the inside of the foil with cooking spray (so kiss won't stick to it) and lift foil sides towards top of kiss, wrapping to look like Hershey Kiss.

8. Write a special message or "Big Kiss" on a thin strip of white paper. Crepe paper works well. Give to a friend or your mom or dad.

To eat: Have an adult cut it with a knife and eat wedges of the Big Kiss. My favorite kind is chocolate- yum!
