I am part of this neat recipe swap that involves trading recipes with other bloggers and making them as is. Now, normally I don’t ever use marshmallows, or boxed cereal, or food coloring; but in the spirit of having fun, being a part of this, and doing something different, I did. You can see the original recipe here.

Cute! I wanted to make these last Christmas and bought everything to make them but never got around to it. Maybe I will bump it up on my list this year.
