Ingredients:

• 4 cups Arrowhead Mills Puffed Rice Cereal

• 1/2 to 3/4 cup Toonie Moonie Organic Marshmallow Fluff

• 2 scoops Collagen Powder (preferably unflavored)

• 1/4 tsp salt

• Optional: 1/4 cup mix-ins (nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips)

Instructions:

1 Prepare an 8x8-inch square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.

2 In a large mixing bowl, add the 4 cups of Arrowhead Mills Puffed Rice Cereal and set aside.

3 In a microwave-safe bowl, scoop in 1/2 to 3/4 cup of Toonie Moonie Organic Marshmallow Fluff. Microwave the fluff for 30 seconds until it becomes smooth and easily stirrable.

4 Carefully remove the marshmallow fluff from the microwave, and quickly mix in the 2 scoops of collagen powder until well combined.

5 Pour the marshmallow-collagen mixture over the puffed rice cereal in the large mixing bowl. Add 1/4 tsp of salt and mix well, ensuring the cereal is evenly coated.

6 If desired, add your choice of mix-ins such as nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips, and fold them into the mixture.

7 Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan, and use a rubber spatula or your wet hands to press it down evenly into the pan.

8 Place the pan into the freezer for 20 minutes to set the Rice Krispie treats.

9 Remove the pan from the freezer and use the parchment paper overhang to lift the treats out of the pan. Cut them into bars or squares, and enjoy!

Storage:

Store the Rice Krispie treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
