Guest guest Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 I had to take my 3 yo daughter Niamh off NV last month as we were on vacation and she would start sobbing everytime I tried to get her to take anything with even a little vanilla NV in it. I just ordered the chocolae NV and I'm waiting for it to arrive. 2 days ago I saw the rice Krispie treat recipie and decided to try it - it was a big hit with Niamh (and her 6yo big brother!). After 2 days of taking the NV in the treats I managed to get a tablespoon in her breakfast cereal today without tears - so hopefully I can gradually work her back up to a full scoop Her twin Aidan had been taking the vanilla NV in his smoothies but has stopped drinking them, however he refuses to even try the RK treats (he doesn't have a big sweet tooth, and has texture issues - much prefers crunchy food). So I was just thinking has anyone tried making chocolate Rice krispie treats (ie with melted chocolate instead of marshmallows) ? He likes chocolate and the texture would suit him better. I just thought I'd check if anyone aleady had a recipe for chocolate RK treats before I try making one up myself. Thanks, mum to 3yo twins Niamh (CAS) and Aidan (speech delay and sensory issues), and 6yo P.S. I'm a novice at making RK treats but I found it incredibly hard to stir the mixture and had lots left stuck to the pan (but not burnt at all), and even with using a full 3 cups of RK in a half sized batch (ie with 1/2 x 1lb bag of marshmallows and 4 scoops NV and 3 1/2 tblspn butter) I seemed to have more marshmallow than krispies in the final product. Did I do something wrong or is this normal ? They still tasted good !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
