Neapolitian Rice Krispies


Did you know that there are strawberry and chocolate flavored marshmallows? I was recently away for the weekend at a friends house in the country where we often have campfires, and with campfires come s'mores. When I arrived at the farm I found several old bags of marshmallows that were no longer suitable for s'mores, so the next logical step ... rice krispies. Instead of mixing all three flavors of marshmallows I kept them separate and created neapolitian rice krispies. They were a fun and festive twist on the traditional rice krispies.
But after making these krispies, I thought they could be better.  I don't really like the fake strawberry or chocolate flavored marshmallows.  Next time, I will use traditional marshmallows and flavor the strawberry section with fresh pureed strawberries and / or strawberry jam, and melt semi-sweet chocolate for the chocolate section.
