Considering where you hang your hat, you'd be
lucky to get billiard balls painted peach color.

A high fiddle method that sounds reasonably
effective, but wouldn't liquid nitrogen be
more so?

Deano's Dragon Breath Bombs
Categories: odd, dessert
Yield: 24 squares 

3 Tb butter or margarine, plus more for greasing the pan
10 oz marshmallows - or 4 c mini marshmallows
6 c puffed rice cereal
1/2 c chocolate chips
rainbow sprinkles, for topping
h - Special equipment
liquid nitrogen 
safety goggles
work gloves or oven mitts
lg stainless steel bowl
metal or plastic jug for liquid nitrogen
large slotted spoon
kitchen towel

Grease a 9" x 11" baking pan.

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. 
Add the marshmallows, and stir until melted 
and smooth. Add the cereal and mix well. 
orking quickly, add the chocolate chips. 
(Depending on the temperature of the crispy 
mix, your chips may melt and you'll have 
chocolate crispy squares. If you add them as 
the mixture gets stiff and cool, they'll stay 
intact as chips. It's completely up to you.

Spread the mixture out evenly into the greased 
pan with an oiled spatula or waxed paper, 
pressing down gently to fit it into the pan. 
Dust the top with rainbow sprinkles and 
refrigerate. When cool, cut into 1" squares.

Pour 2 to 3" liquid nitrogen very slowly into 
a stainless steel bowl. Make sure to wear your 
goggles and gloves!

Drop 8 to 10 crispy squares into the liquid 
nitrogen for 30 to 40 sec. Scoop them out with 
a slotted spoon and place on a serving plate. 
Wait 10 sec then eat the squares. You will have 
some 'dragon's breath' coming out of your mouth 
and nose. Thrills and chills will ensue!

Cook's Note
Use liquid nitrogen with caution. Do not allow 
it to touch your skin or countertop. Liquid 
nitrogen will burn your skin instantly.
