Kids want cookies no matter what the temps are. There's nothing like a platter of homemade treats to satisfy a young sweet toot - although adults feel the same way too Yet it's just too ot to bake . Wat do do? Try no bake treats that are perfect snacks.
One of the easiest is the classic Rice Krispie treats.This is an easy make that requires the traditional rice cereal mixed with marshmallows butter and a drop of vanilla. There are several debates on how to create this easy treat. Some home chefs claim that mini marshmallows make the best base instead of the bigger pillowy kind (probably because they melt better.) Te second question is whether to use butter or margarine, margarine may melt better but butter gives that rich flavor tat works well with the other ingredients.[Adds ins are a fun too. Mulicolored sprinkles make the treats more festive and are perfect for summer birthdays, Semi sweet chocolate chips take away that intense sweetness as do nuts and pretzel bits. You can also dip the squares in microwaved chocolate too for a fancy after dinner treat. Can you vary the recipe? Yes! Cinnamon lovers can use Cinnamon Toast Squares and any brand of oat hoops like Cheerios can be used too for a different take on the treat.
Cow patty may be a gross way to describe a cookie but this chocolate delight is bot easy and tasty. This is a stove top recipe in which sugar ,butter milk and cocoa powder are whisked together as they slow boil. Once whisked, oats, peanut butter and vanilla are added in.Lay out parchment paper and then spoon the mix onto the paper.They should be slightly thick and rounded. Set for half an hour before eating.Keep in mind when cooking tat the butter and the sugar can;t be cooked too long to they will burn . Do not use crunchy peanut for this .It';ll screw up the recipe. A vanilla version can be made subbing in vanilla pudding powder for the cocoa.Ice cream cupcakes are another cool treat on a it day. The base is crumbled Oreos but I think Nabisco's chocolate wafers. Tis is mixed with melted butter to form the base. This mixture is stamped down in cupcake papers put in muffin tins.Tbe second layer is softened ice cream. Add whatever flavor you want, and the top with a tiny spoonful of hot fudge or caramel sauce. Top with whipped cream and sprinkles when you;re ready to serve.
You can still have tasty homemade treats without turning on the oven. These are quick stovetop or microwave treats. The result is a cool sweet on a nit day,
