Editors Review

You don't always need a dollop of chocolate ice cream to stave off your craving. Sometimes something as delicious and utterly chocolaty like marshmallows and crunch squares would make for equally heavenly indulgence. Betty whomps up a rich rice crispy treat and amps it up with chocolate. Result, a chewy, crunchy, chocolaty treat that's a real winner all the way.
