Rice Krispie Bundt - Day #21 of Food Librarian's I Like Big Bundts 3

Rice Krispie Bundt

I Like Big Bundts - Day #21

Happy Sunday! I'm still in denial that it's really November. Like, Thanksgiving in a few weeks? Shut up!

Actually, the only date I see is November 15th - National Bundt Day! Hee hee. We're on Day #21 of I Like Big Bundts - bringing you 30 bundts in 30 days leading up to National Bundt Day!

So, this is my third (and probably final) year doing this...and I've made about 100 bundts on this blog. I'm always looking at foods thinking, "Can I Bundt that?" :) Today, the Rice Krispie Bundt answers that!

I made the traditional Rice Krispie recipe and smashed it into a small 6-cup Bundt. If you do this in a regular, traditional 12-cup Bundt, you should double the recipe or know that it won't be as tall. Also, I really smashed it down as you can see in the cross-section photo.

I topped the bundt with some chocolate covered sunflower seeds from Trader Joe's. Love these! The colors are different than the usual primary colors...nice!

Hope these Bundts inspire you to make a bundt on November 15th for your friends, family or co-workers.

 

Bake a bundt for National Bundt Day on November 15th! Then submit a photo or blog post by November 24, 2011 and I'll send you a 1 1/4" button for baking along with me! The submission info can be found here!

This bundt was well received at the library. Who doesn't love rice krispie treats?

Have a great Sunday! We'll see you tomorrow for another bundt!! - mary the food librarian
