Rice Crispy with Ginger & Sesame Seeds
Ginger is a super food so this makes it a healthy snack, in my mind. I buy ginger in bulk, puree in food processor, and freeze in ice cube tray to always have it available. I usually add extra ginger to any recipe. Beef fat or tallow is nice flavor alternative to butter.
Ingredients
- 8 T (4 oz) tallow or unsalted butter
- 1 T ginger juice (grate the ginger then squeeze juice out through a garlic press) I will toss in the grated pressed ginger if I'm not using it for another recipe.
- 10 oz bag mini marshmallows
- 8 C rice crispy cereal
- 2 T black sesame seeds
- 2 T roasted sesame seeds
- sea salt
Directions
- Add a little tallow to a 9 x 13 pan for an easy release, set aside.
- In a large pot add tallow, marshmallows, ginger juice over medium heat until marshmallows are melted.
- Remove from heat, add rice crispy cereal and sesame seeds until mixture is combined.
- Pour into prepared pan, press firmly to compress. Parchment paper or a silicone spatula works to evenly spread it.
- Lightly with sprinkle sea salt.
- When cooled, transfer to a cutting board and cut into bite sized pieces. For tennis friends to enjoy at the courts, it's easier to transport and enjoy in paper cupcake wrappers.
