After a good day and a good dinner…of course at my brother’s house with his family…I thought I would make something sweet to eat. Rice Krispie treats are always a good idea…consistantly yummy, easy to make and clean up after. How could I go wrong? Well…
There is obviously a difference between melting the marshmallows on the stove and melting them in the microwave. Something tastes different. They aren’t as…buttery sweet as they usually are. It’s just not the same. Did I build them up too much in my mind? Am I remembering them as better than they were? Or did I screw up by trying to cut corners and melt the marshmallows in the microwave? Is there some chemical reaction I skipped over by not melting them on the stove?
Let this be a lesson to all of us…some times you can cut corners and some times you just can’t!!
