Marshmallow Chip Treats

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Potato Chip Recipe is a Salty Spin on the Rice Krispie Square

— March 27, 2015 — Lifestyle
This potato chip recipe is an unusual but likely tasty twist on the Rice Krispie square. Created by food blogger Amy of Oh, Bite It!, the Ruffles Krispie Treats use crushed up Ruffles Chips instead of cereal. You will also need butter, vanilla and lots of marshmallows.

This salty dessert is perfect if you enjoy sweet and savory combinations. The texture is also really satisfying as it mixes crunchy and gooey -- more so than your average Rice Krispie treats.

If you want to bring something totally original to a bake sale, this potato chip recipe is a great way to go. It's also a fun and innovate snack to bring the next time you are a guest somewhere.
