2-10oz packages of marshmallows
2 cups creamy peanut butter
10 cups crisp rice cereal
no-stick cooking spray
jelly beans, licorice gum drops, or decorative candy
Glaze (optional)
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons milk

In large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows. Stir

Stir in peanut butter and mix well to incorporate.
Add rice crisp cereal and stir until well coated.
Press into two 9-inch pans, well coated with cooking spray and allow

football shaped ears from the top and bottom of one cake layer,
leaving a bow tie-shaped piece in the middle.
Position two ears at top of whole round cake and place bow tie under

decorations.
