Heart Shaped Rice Krispies Treats!


The heart wants what the heart wants. Ours wants rice krispies treats! In ode to Valentine's Day, ours come in heart form! 

If you're in the eye of the storm like myself, this is the perfect treat to make with the kiddies today. With just 3 ingredients most of you have in the house, you have the perfect edible arts and crafts project to create with the littles. You're in luck if you have Rice Krispies, marshmallows, and butter!


If you don't have heart shaped pans, don't fret. Simply lay out the rice Krispy mixture in baking pan and cut with heart shaped cookie cutters. Also- no biggie if you don't have the heart sprinkles. Just leave them out. 


You can use any sprinkles, chocolate chips, or candy pieces you have in the house. Spray the pan first to avoid sticking, then sprinkle in topping. If making bars, sprinkle out topping on wax paper before laying down mixture. If you want to do these for Valentine's Day, you can purchase the Wilton heart sprinkles and the pans on Amazon. 


Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter
1 package (10 oz., about 40) marshmallows
OR
4 cups mini marshmallows
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Directions

1. In a large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

2. Add Rice Krispies. Stir until well coated.

3. Evenly press mixture into coated pan of choice. If making bars,  a  13 x 9 x 2 pan works best. 

Have fun & enjoy!
