**I've added the recipe since there seemed to be link issues - but still go visit Or So She Says - it's an awesome blog!


Coconut Rice Krispy Treats
Notes: If you want to go really crazy coconutty you could use coconut oil in place of the butter for these. Only if you’re crazy though. You sane people just stick to the butter :)

4 Tbsp butter
6 cups marshmallows 
1 1/2 tsp coconut extract
1 1/2 cups toasted coconut (I toasted mine for a few minutes on the stove top on medium heat)
5 cups rice krispies

Pour the rice krispies and toasted coconut in a large mixing bowl and set aside. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Once melted add in the marshmallows. Stir until they are mostly all melted (this will take a few minutes–low and slow is key for perfect texture) then stir in the coconut extract. 

Once fully melted, take them off heat and pour over the rice krispies. Stir lightly to combine, then dump into a greased 9×9 pan. Allow to cool 5 minutes, then press lightly into pan with greased hands. Allow to fully set (about 20-30 min) and enjoy!
