Oh the things I get up to in my spare time

Inspired by @gretchy to make rice crispy treats completely from scratch, and I’m so glad I did☁️ these turned out so delicious and were a fun challenge

Ingredients
-2 cup dry rice, rinsed
-4 cups water
-3 tbsp gelatin
-1/2 cup water
-1/2 cup honey/maple syrup
-1/3 cup water
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-1/4 tsp salt
-1 tbsp grass-fed butter
-tallow to fry (or coconut or avocado oil)

Marshmallows
-in a large bowl, add the gelatin and pour 1/2 cup water evenly over to bloom. Set aside.
-over medium heat, add rest of water and honey to a medium pot and bring to a boil for 7-10 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning
-while the sugar/water is boiling, prepare 8x8 pan by coating the bottom with tapioca starch.
-set up electric hand beaters or stand mixer
-slowly pour the sugar/water mixture into large bowl with bloomed gelatin while the beaters are on low
-increase speed and add optional vanilla
-beat for 8 minutes, until white and fluffy
-quickly pour into prepared pan and let set

Rice puffs:
-rinse rice until water is clear
-par boil rice for 6 minutes then drain excess water
-spread rice in a thin layer on a baking sheet, bake at 200 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 hours until dry, stirring in every now and then to declump
-heat tallow on medium high, wait 5 minutes
-test a grain of rice, it should immediately puff up
-rice fry in batches, and place on paper towel to cool
-once rice puffs are cooled completely, melt marshmallows on low heat with butter until smooth
-pour over rice puffs and combine
-press into prepared pan to set and enjoy🍚☁️

Butter is better for your brain! Yes, butter provides the brain with the nutrients it needs:

Cholesterol: The highest concentration of cholesterol occurs in the brain, where it plays an especially important role in memory formation. Seniors with the highest cholesterol levels have the best memory function. Cholesterol also plays a major role in regulating serotonin levels in the brain – low cholesterol levels are associated with depression, anti-social behavior and even suicide.

Saturated Fats: The brain contains high levels of saturated fats, both in the cell membranes and in the mitochondria. Saturated fats are stable and don’t create damage in the brain like poly-unsaturated fats do.

Arachidonic Acid: Eleven percent of your brain is composed of arachidonic acid (AA), a type of omega-6 fatty acids found exclusively in animal fats like butter. A supply of AA is critical to neurological development in the infant.

Vitamin A plays a key role in vision and all sensory perception. Butter is an excellent source of vitamin A.

Vitamin D is critical to neurological function and protection against depression. Butter provides vitamin D.

Vitamin K supports neurological function and learning. Butter provides vitamin K.

DHA is an omega-3 fatty acids especially concentrated in the brain. Seafood is a good source, but butter provides it also.

Choline is critical for the formation of glial cells. Butter is an excellent source.
