Holiday Treats


I will be helping my mom with holiday baking this year, so I asked Matt what treats he'd like. Since my mom always makes fancy treats like homemade fudge, carmels, and macaroons, I expected that he'd want something special, but he wanted something simple: Rice Krispies treats (RKTs).


I think RKTs are the most underrated treat. Everyone loves them, they are easy and cheap to make, but around the holidays people tend to labor over fruitcakes, pumpkin rolls, and other complicated treats.


Maybe Matt's love for RKTs has something to do with the fact that we live in Rock Hill, the same town as Vernon Grant, the artist who created Snap, Crackle, and Pop.
