Chewy Rice Krispie Treats

1 cube margarine
2 16 oz. bags mini marshmallows
12-13 c. rice krispies

Use the cube of margarine to lightly grease an 11x14 jelly roll pan (large cookie sheet). Melt margarine and add mini marshmallows. Stir until melted. Remove from heat and stir in rice krispies until well coated. Pour into greased pan and pat down. Cool and cut into squares.

Maple Bars - variation
Melt 1 bag of milk chocolate chips and 1 bag of butterscotch chips together in microwave. Stir and spread over rice krispie treats before cutting. These are really rich so you will probably want to cut them into small squares.

This recipe came from my sister-in-law Kathy Berlin (yes, there really are 2 of us:)). You add more marshmallows but not more margarine. I have several friends who call me every time they make them to get the recipe. The maple part came from our own little family:)
