I love Target. I do. But then there are times when I shake my fists at it, too, because (as I hear is the way for most people) Target always offers me things to buy that I hadn't planned on buying. So I buy them. And I really only shop in the grocery section! BUT then those purchases that I never planned on purchasing allow me to make tasty things like Bugles Marshmallow Treats. So I think my love for Target outweighs me wanting to give it the side eye.
Bugles Marshmallow Treats
Ingredients
- 6c Bugles, crushed (not pulverized, but not whole—medium to big pieces will do)
- 4c mini marshmallows
- 1-2T butter (your preference on how buttery you want it to taste)
Directions
- Grease a 9x13 pan with shortening.
- Crush and measure out Bugles into a large bowl. (I made the mistake of crushing them after I measured, so I didn't get as much Bugle in there as possible. Definitely crush them first.)
- Melt butter and mallows on stove in the big pot you own.
- Stir crushed Bugles into melted mallow until evenly distributed.
- Smash into prepared pan; let cool.
- Remove from pan and cut into whatever size pieces your heart desires. (There is also the option of leaving it a big hunk of sticky Bugle mess and just pulling pieces from it like monkey bread. In fact, I encourage you to try that.)
While I could just eat an entire bag of Bugles on its own (Have I mentioned I <3 <3 <3 salt?), these were pretty fantastic!
If you are planning a trip to Target today for that one thing you need, while you are adding all those things you don't need to the cart, why not throw in a couple bags of Bugles and a thing of marshmallows and make some Bugles Marshmallow Treats as a reward for getting out of there without spending more than $50. Eh, better make it $100.
