Sweet Imitation Sushi

Gather
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 4 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 6 cups crispy rice cereal
  • gummy worms
  • green fruit leather

Go

  1. Grease a 12-by-17-inch cookie sheet.
  2. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat.
  3. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Add cereal, and stir until coated.
  4. Using waxed paper, press the warm mixture onto the baking sheet, evenly spreading it.
  5. Turn the cookie sheet so that the shorter ends are at the top and bottom. Beginning 1 inch from the bottom, place gummy worms end to end along the width of the mixture. Move up about 3 inches and repeat. You should end up with four lines.
  6. Use waxed paper to fold the lower edge over the worms. Gently roll forward to form a “sushi” log, stopping before you reach the next line of gummy worms.
  7. Cut away the log from the rest of the marshmallow mixture. Repeat steps 6 and 7 to form three more logs.
  8. When logs are cool, ask an adult to slice them into "sushi rolls" with a sharp knife.
  9. Arrange them on a platter and wrap each one with a strip of green fruit leather for a colorful presentation!
