Sweet Treat 101

I never thought Rice Krispies can be this yummy until I tried making a sweet treat out of this lovely bubblies a fortnight ago.
The first time I tried this was when a colleague brought this to work with the rice krispies flattened so inconspicuously in a pan. It's sweet aroma was so enticing that our breaktime was held an hour earlier. Get it out of the pan already! And so she did.
The crunchy and sweet taste easily reminded me of the sweet delicacy back home called "ampao".

A trip down memory lane saw me enjoying my daily dose of ampao after school with friends. We were so young then.
Several years on and with so many miles apart, I came face to face again with my fave delicacy but this time, right in the comforts of my own kitchen. I never realized how easy this sweetie is to make. No sweat!


I bought a box of Rice krispies, marshmallows and toffee sauce.

Mix all the ingredients together and viola! a homemade ampao UK-style for you.

A definite quick-fix for hypoglycaemics :)

No scent of apples for me anymore!
