Australian Crunch, Honey Nut Squares and Millionaires Shortbread
Finally I made Rice Crispy Squares. It's one of those things I've always wanted to make, my previous attempted to melt marshmellow into a liquid have always failed.
I think maybe it was I had the heat too high, or a non-Teflon coated pan, or just the fact I didn't use any butter that caused it to stick originally, but this time I didn't, infact the opposite stick to itself in a big clump at times.
I had some Honey Nut Cornflakes left over from the Australian Crunch, so rather than using Rice Crispies, I used cornflakes. It still worked out quite well, and the honey gave them an extra kick in the taste.
Extremely addicted, if not a bit too chewy, I did go a little overboard with the amount of marshmallows I added to the mixture.
