Sticky!!!

[stormlight811]

I am, in Dr. Seussian-fashion, stuck to myself, the counters, a spoon, the cats, the ingredients, and my pots in a sad (but delicious!) fashion. (Hmm...also the keyboard, now. That's going to be fun to clean

>>(I was amazed when visiting a grocery store to purchase the makings with Jenmur: "What?" sayeth I, "Only three ingredients?? How doth some confection which hath so influenced our poor civilization be of only three ingredients in its making?" "Yea," quoth she, "Only three." "But lo! So simple!" sayeth I...in my ignorance.)

We LOVE those. We have some tricks that help the sticky stay in the pan.
First: Do NOT remove the pan from the heat to stir the Krispies into the marshmallow, simply turn the heat down to it's lowest, and mix in the Krispies, in batches, as fast as you can.
Second: Line your pan with overlarge parchment paper; when you plop the blob of yum into the pan, you can fold over the extra paper flaps, and smoosh it down without touching it. A can works well for getting it mostly flat.
Third: Munch all the extra gooeys off the silicone spatula while the rest cools.

Brilliant!! Thank you!

I recommend throwing your keyboard in the dishwasher. Let it dry a couple days before plugging it back in.

lol!! "Uh...Mom? Were you, um, okay last night? There are rice krispies stuck to everything and there's an, um, keyboard in the dishwasher..."

Assuming you have a spare keyboard somewhere that will work in the interim, I really wasn't kidding about the keyboard.

[stormlight811]

It makes sense -- I just never thought about a keyboard being dishwasher-safe.
