    2. Add KELLOGG'S COCOA KRISPIES cereal. Stir until well coated.

    3. Using buttered spatula or wax paper spread mixture into 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan coated with cooking spray, leaving uneven surface. (Do not press firmly.) Arrange gummy worms on top. Sprinkle with cookie crumbs, lightly pressing into cereal mixture. Cool. Cut into 2-inch squares. Best if served the same day.

    In microwave-safe bowl heat butter and marshmallows on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Follow steps 2 and 3 above. Microwave cooking times may vary.
