I just made some brownies tonight with the plan of giving some to my boyfriend tomorrow. However, plans have changed last minute and it turns out I won’t seem him until Sunday. Will they still be good by then? Would it be better to store them in a ziploc bag or tupperware? Any suggestions on how to make them stay fresh? Thanks!

We don’t have any marshmallows, so I am wondering if there are alternatives for marshmallows when making Rice Krispies Squares?

I want to make a hand sticking out of the center of a cake using rice krispies to mold it. I’ve been having trouble getting them to stop falling apart; any suggestions to help them stick together better? Thanks
I’m using half of the recipe that was on the package of marshmallows:
2tbs butter
3 cups cereal
20 marshmallows
I’m going to try the extra-marshmallow suggestion. And, I think the extra-drying you suggested may also have merit. I’ll let you know; thanks.
