Rice Crispie Treat DEATH MATCH Trial Recipe: Cadbury Mini Eggs

Look what I had in the kitchen today:


Oh merciful heavens.  Lance I luuuurrrrvveee Cadbury Mini Eggs.  They are so divine.  The extra-crispy shell and the yummy chocolate put them above even peanut M&Ms, and those are my all-time favorites.  (Or maybe it's peanut butter M&Ms.  No - wait - coconut M&Ms.  Okay, I love all M&Ms. All the time.)

I decided to make the ultimate sacrifice and use these in my next rice crispies DEATH MATCH recipe.   I chopped up the mini eggs, adding half to the rice crispies and saving the other half for the top.


I had to wait for them to cool.  Then I had to wait for Josh and all his friends to finish lunch.  (Because no way was I sharing this goodness with a bunch of little kids who wouldn't appreciate them the way I would!)

Finally!

Verdict?  Pretty dang tasty, my friends.  Pretty dang tasty.  The shells add an extra-pleasing crunch, and the chocolate is slightly melted and thus extra yummy.  But are they worthy of ETERNAL FAME AND GLORY?

Maybe.  The problem is, while they're really good, I don't know if they're special or interesting enough.  Plus, I'd have to buy several bags of the mini eggs and stash them until the reunion; would the stash actually last that long?  Doubtful.

On to the next recipe!
