The third episode of Trend Hunter’s Bake-Off challenge featured Vasiliki Marapas making Rice Krispie coal treats for naughty kids. The marshmallows made it very difficult for her to form the coal-like shapes but she pressed on, never taking her eyes of the goal of first place.
These delicious holiday coal-inspired goodies are perfect for pranking your troublesome, disobedient children. Pack a few in their stockings and you’ll be sure to give them an unpleasantly festive surprise on Christmas morning. They might start to cry, but once they realize the wonderful marshmallow Rice Krispie goodness the lumps are made of, they’ll feel much better while learning their lesson.
So if you’re as daring as Vasiliki, try out the Christmas coal recipe yourself and stay tuned for the next and final episode of Trend Hunter’s No-Bake Bake-Off.
