I made these treats when I when I went to go visit my girlfriends in my college town, Fresno a few weeks ago. Every time I make a trip I love bringing my friends a tasty treat to get us through our fun filled weekend! These simple rice krispy treats have a festive Valentine’s Day twist! You can always alternate the M&M colors for any season! Plus, I dipped the bottom of them in white chocolate so they make the perfect holiday treat. These are so easy to make, kids can even do it too!
Yield: 12
Ingredients:
6 cups rice krispy cereal
2 Tbsp butter
1 16 oz bag of mini marshmallows
1 cup of M&M’s
1 cup white chocolate ‘candy melts’
Sprinkles (optional)
Steps:
1. In a microwavable safe bowl, microwave marshmallows and butter for 1 1/2 minutes.
2. Measure cereal and M&M’s and put in a large bowl. Once marshmallows are melted, add to large bowl and mix with a spatula until cereal and M&M’s are completely coated with marshmallows.
4. Lightly grease a 9 by 13 inch pan and pour rice krispy mix. Top with sprinkles and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
5. Once rice krispy treats are cool, cut into 12 squares. In a medium bow, melt white chocolate ‘candy melts’ and dip one side of rice krispy treats. With a butter knife, scrape off access chocolate. Place dipped treats onto a cooling rack. Top with more candy or sprinkles, its completely up to you and let cool.
