Vintage Rice Krispies Recipe Card & Clipping « RecipeCurio.com (2024)

Here’s an old Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Marshmallow Treats recipe & rebate card combo from the 1950s (I believe). You can still see the yellowed piece of tape across the front and the outline of a circle underneath that held a quarter, it seems Kellogg’s sent back an actual quarter! There are a handful of recipes in this sweet little card which included the Marshmallow Crispy Treats recipe and variations for it.

I’ve also included a recipe cutout from a Rice Krispies cereal box that has a recipe for Polka Dot Bars (date unknown for this one).
