    The Original Rice Krispies recipe calls for:
    3 tablespoons butter or margarine (1/4 cup),
    1 package (10 oz., about 40) regular marshmallows OR 4 cups mini marshmallows,
    6 cups cereal.
    I'd imagine you'd use the same measurements for the Kashi recipe, and "light butter" = margarine

    light butter is not margarine - light butter is butter whipped with canola oil, which reduces the unhealthy saturated fat to some extent. Margarine generally has the worst trans fats and I avoid it.

    AWESOME. Loved these! Used Smart Balance butter. Almost burned the marmallow mixture so make sure you keep stirring and pay attention if you use large marshmallows (I found the smaller ones melt easier). Thanks for the recipe! Have made three times already. Husb loves 'em and they are easy to make! - 5/18/09

    These were so yummy! More flavor than rice crispys! I crushed the cereal before I added it so the chunks weren't so big. Big hit at work! LOVED IT!!!! - 8/6/08

    I love this recipe, so does my boyfriend. I pack one with our lunches for a quick bite in the afternoon -- no more temptation from vending machines! Easy to make. It helps if you crush the cereal slightly -- the longer cereal pieces are hard to mix with the marshmallows. - 8/7/07

    These were delicious! I used a 10 oz bag of mini-marshmallows and crushed the cereal in a ziploc bag. Thanks for the recipe! - 12/6/09

    I liked using Kashi cereal more than rice cereal since I find Kashi cereal to be slightly sweet anyway. - 7/8/08

    18 is a lot of servings for a one/two person household. I reduced it by 6: 1 cup kashi, 2 tsp lt butter and 7 marshmallows. Made three VERY tasty servings, though I think next time I'll crush the kashi a little more before mixing it in. THANK YOU for a healthy twist on an old favorite. - 6/22/11

    When I first tasted this I thought it's good but can't replace rice krispies treats. BUT the longer it sits in your mouth, the better it tastes. I really liked this recipe and will make it again. - 10/25/10

    It is Kashi so I won't try it because I actually don't like most of their products. The products taste like stale cardboard to me. - 6/16/09

    Just made this and was pleased with the results. Good snack to have around....sorry I didn't think of only making a half batch as DH didn't care for them. - 7/12/12

    Great recipe though I added dried fruit, seeds, dark chocolate morsels, almonds and walnuts to mine. It was very very filling, I wasn't hungry for hours unlike the regular ones or a breakfast bar and it satisfied my sweet tooth as well! - 2/27/12

    These are pretty good! Nothing can replace the old fashioned rice crispy treats but these are an excellent, better for you alternative. - 7/14/11

    I use Earth Balance spread instead of butter. (grudgingly, only due to my recent lactose intolerance). It is trans fat free, no hydrogenated oils, or gluten. Completely vegan, if you need that. (You can get vegan marshmallows, too!) - 4/19/10

    Soounds delicious and want to try it but when I went to buy the Kashi, there were two or more types. Which one is the best to use ? - 3/13/10

    never thought of this, definitely going to give it a try. I love rice krispie bars and I love Go Lean cereal so it has to be great. - 6/16/09

    Sounds great! I got tired of eating Kashi so switched to oatmeal but that left me with 1/2 bag of Kashi. This is a good way to use leftovers before they get stale. I use Smart Balance for the butter & while sometimes hard to find it's worth using it and their mayo. - 5/15/09

    Could you please tell me what "light butter" is? I've never heard of it and never seen it. Could I use Smart Balance Light instead?

    I'm anxious to try this, but have no idea how to find "light butter". ALSO, what size is a bag of marshmallows?
