A Princess Party Menu With Plenty of Sweet Treats

It's oh so glamorous and oh so much fun at any Princess party! The guests can come to worship you or come to feel like royalty themselves. It's your party after all and you can decide how it goes. The food of course can be campy for your princess theme or super elegant also depending on how you are feeling. Here are a few of our favorite things for a great and highly satisfying dinner buffet!

Sweet potato casserole is as easy as can be to prepare. Buy the two pound can of sweet potatoes and empty into a three quart casserole dish. Fold in one quarter cup each of brown sugar and butter or margarine cut into small pieces. Top with miniature marshmallows and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Open faced turkey sandwiches served with a scoop of mashed potatoes and prepared packaged turkey stuffing and covered with jar or canned turkey gravy will make a simple to prepare yet elegant birthday meal. Make sure to serve piping hot with firm bread that won't get too soggy under the gravy. A cold pea salad might be a fun way to connect with the princess and the pea fairy tale. Better yet a seven layer salad with peas as one of the main ingredients makes this a meal fit for royalty.

It doesn't have to take you forever to put together that Princess party menu. Many party foods can be prepared ahead of time and just heated in the oven or served at room temperature. In addition party supplies are a great way to decorate and many are quick to put up and take down after the party. If you find that the kids are really active at your parties, be sure to have some party games on hand to use up excess energy.

Finding the Perfect Rice Crispy Treats Recipe

Rice crispy treats recipe ignites thousands of wonderful memories in me. It's a recipe that can sweeten dreams, throw tastebuds into a tizzy and send your imagination soaring. And this kind of uninhibited frenzy is just not restricted to kids alone. Grown-ups too have an inscrutable affinity for this all time-favorite dessert.

Stir Up Some Passion

The candy corn recipe is the perfect way to bring together some sinful ingredients- candies, marshmallows and crispy rice cereal. Here's what the recipe requires:

½ cup butter

10 cups crispy rice cereal

9 cups miniature marshmallows

2 cups candy corn

A few drops of yellow and red food colors

Set the ball rolling by bringing together the rice cereal and candy corn in a large bowl. Keep the mixture aside. In another large bowl, melt butter and marshmallows over low heat, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Remove from the heat and add a dash of red and yellow colors. Mix the cereal and the melted marshmallows, stirring as fast as you can. Spread this mixture on a large, greased baking pan. Press down with buttered hands or a spatula. Allow it to cool. Thereafter, cut into squares and watch them do the quintessential disappearing act.

Just in case you are woefully starved of ideas for Halloween snacks, use this delightful recipe with minor variations. Replace the baking pan with a Jack 'O' Lantern styled pan, and watch the animated reactions that follow.

Fun With Flavors

Add a modicum of your favorite flavors and this dessert makes the stunning transformation from boring to brilliant. Here's how:

40 large marshmallows

½ cup butter or margarine

4 cups rice crispy cereal

A sprinkle of vanilla and almond extracts

Bring together marshmallows and butter in a large microwave safe bowl. Microwave for about 10 minutes, stirring at regular intervals. When melted, add in the extracts. Mix the cereal and transfer to a greased pan. Once cool, it'll be high treason not to succumb to their delightful flavors.

Homemade raspberry marshmallows, crispy chocolate cereal or peanut butter - there's no dearth of inspiration when it comes to creating the most delectable of all creations. It's only your insular thinking that can come in your way.
