Ingredients

Servings

Rind

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp salted butter
  • 2 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • green food coloring (I used gel coloring)
  • 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Center

  • 2 Tbsp salted butter
  • 3 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • Pink or Red Food Coloring
  • 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 2 tsp mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with non-stick cooking spray, set aside. For the rind portion, melt 1 1/2 Tbsp butter in a medium non-stick saucepan over medium-low heat. 
  2. Add in 2 1/2 cups marshmallows and green food coloring and cook and stir just until marshmallows have melted.
  3. Remove from heat and in 2 cups rice krispies, stir until evenly coat. 
  4. Pour into prepared baking dish and let cool just slightly (so it's not too hot to the touch), spray hands with non-stick cooking spray and spread and press mixture around outer edge to create a rind that is no more than 1-inch thick (don't over-press so they stay nice and chewy).
  5. Clean and dry saucepan then for the center portion melt 2 Tbsp butter in saucepan over medium-low heat. 
  6. Add 3 1/2 cups marshmallows and pink or red food coloring and cook and stir just until fully melted. Remove from heat and stir in 3 cups rice krispies. 
  7. Pour into center of cake pan and once cool enough to handle spray hands with non-stick cooking spray and spread into an even layer. 
  8. Let cool then sprinkle and press chocolate chips randomly over pink portion. Cut into 6 - 8 wedges. Store in an airtight container.
