Candy Cereal Treats

Cecily: I won a contest with these, but they’re a Taste of Home recipe. Take them to a Relief Society function and you’ll see—the results are downright scary.

½ c butter, softened
2/3 c. brown sugar
2 egg yolks
1 t vanilla
1 ½ c. flour
½ t baking powder
½ t salt
¼ t soda
3 c mini marshmallows
2/3 c corn syrup
¼ c butter
1 pkg. peanut butter or butterscotch chips
2 t vanilla
2 c rice crispy cereal
1 c peanuts
1 c M & Ms

Cream butter and brown sugar, beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and soda. Gradually add in but don’t over mix. Press into a 9x13 pan and bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes. Sprinkle on marshmallows and bake 2-3 minutes more until puffy. Let cool. Combine corn syrup, butter, and chips in saucepan. Stir over medium heat til smooth, then stir in vanilla, rice crispies, peanuts, and M & Ms. Spread mixture over crust and let cool. Don’t eat the whole pan yourself.
