We all remember rice crispy treats from our childhoods, right? They’re super satisfying and more importantly, super easy and quick to make. This rice crispy treats recipe is a twist on the classic because you can now make them vegan-friendly thanks to Dandie’s Marshmallows that contain no gelatine and are made of high-quality, real vanilla and vegan cane sugar. These days we really can have it all: tasty treats that you don’t have to feel guilty about. Not that you should ever feel guilty ever for enjoying a sweet snack that brings back all the nostalgia. If you think that vegan marshmallows won’t be the same as non-vegan ones, then have no fear because they don’t taste any different – in fact, they might even be better tasting even.
