Oscars Party Fun and Recipes

The Oscars! Have you ever wanted to go to the red carpet and watch all the stars? I love watching to see who wins which award.  Here are some recipe suggestions for tomorrow night.

Do you like sushi? Here is a fun recipe for Candy Sushi! My daughter loved making these with me!

CANDY SUSHI

Ingredients

2 T. melted butter

2 c. marshmellows

3 c. rice krispies

In a pan, melt butter and marshmallows.  Add rice krispies.  Then pour out onto wax paper lined cookie sheet.  Smash down.  You will not fill up the entire pan.  Only cook this small amount at one time. It makes it easier to roll up.

Time to add in the fun!

Ingredients

Twizlers (colorful)

gummy worms

swedish fish

pop rocks

Wilton green icing

Lay out a row of candy.

Next step is to roll it up like a Maki (a cut roll)sushi. This is easy.
This pan will make 3 maki sushi rolls. We used sushi bamboo mats. It is not necessary to use them for candy sushi.

Next step is to slice these into pieces of sushi. We used a serrated bread knife.
You can also roll fruit roll-ups or fruit leather around them. IF you add the fruit then you slice after that!

We also made nigiri sushi rolls. You roll the rice krispies into tiny rectangle rolls. Then add dried fruit (apricots) or swedish fish on top!
