Snap! Crackle! Sushi!


We all love Rice Krispie Treats, but for those with a more discerning palate, here's a little Treats adaptation that you might enjoy.  Yōkoso ("you're welcome").

Rice Krispies Sushi

3 tbsp butter (or margarine)
1 pkg marshmallows (about 40 or 4 cups mini marshmallows)
6 cups Rice Krispies
2 boxes Swedish Fish
1 box Fruit Roll-Ups

We use sashimi-grade Swedish Fish – the original kind that comes in a yellow box with a psycho-looking red fish on the front.  It's definitely your higer quality Fish, though if you prefer some color variety, there are other brands out there. 


Melt butter over low heat in large saucepan.
Add marshmallow until complete melted.

We highly recommend using mini marshmallows because they will melt more quickly.

Add in the Rice Krispies and stir until well coated.

We turned the burner off, but continued to hold the pot over it while mixing because the lingering heat helped keep the marshmallow maleable and made it easier to stir.

Take a large spoonful of the mixture and roll into an oval (about 1-1/2 x 3” in shape).


Put the rice balls on wax paper and set aside.
Roll out a Fruit Roll-Up and cut into 5” strips, then cut the strip in half lengthwise.


Put a fish on top of the rice ball, wrap the fruit strip around the fish and rice ball.
Where the strip overlaps, dab it with a bit of water to help make it stick to itself as it dries.


Will make about 50 Swedish Fish rolls.
