For those of you who have been reading the blog, you know well of my love for all things malted. (And let me tell you, I don’t blog about half the malted stuff I eat.)
A while back I decided to create a recipe for Rice Krispie Squares with Malt.
This turned out to be rather simple, and here’s the recipe I used:
4 tablespoons of butter (a half a stick)
40 large marshmallows (about 10 ounces)
5 cups of crisped rice
1/2 cup of Carnation Malted Milk powder
Melt the butter in the bottom of a large saucepan (big enough to hold all ingredients) over the lowest heat. Add the marshmallows after the butter has melted, stir over low heat (this part takes a while).
When the marshmallows are dissolved and mixed thoroughly with the butter, add the malted milk powder, slowly to prevent clumping. Stir well (and quickly). Remove from heat and add in the rice krispies (I usually add half, stir well, then add the other half).
Dump mixture into a baking pan (I use 12x9, but you can do square and they’ll just be really tall). Press with buttered fingers into corners. Allow to cool.
The squares end up being a bit milder, less sweet than regular rice crispies treats. I enjoyed them and I think I’ll probably make them again (seeing how I have a half a box of rice crispies, I’ll probably have to). The look about the same as the regular ones, maybe a little more yellow and have a distinctive malty smell.
I know this doesn’t qualify as candy, but I supposed you could make small cubes and dip them in chocolate. Yum.
