Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 4 cups mini marshmallows or 1 package 10 oz., about 40 regular sized marshmallows
- ¼ cup butter
For Decorating
- 1 cup each of three different colors of candy melts or other chocolate
- assorted sprinkles
- 12 Popsicle Sticks
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
- In a large pan over medium heat melt butter and marshmallows while stirring until they are completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add in Rice Krispies cereal. Stir to evenly coat the cereal.
- Spread the cereal mixture evenly into the lined baking sheet and press gently to make it flat and even. You can spread butter on your hands or use a piece of wax paper or a flat spatula to help. Allow the cereal mixture to cool completely.
- Gently lift the cooled treats out of the pan using the parchment paper and put it on a cutting board.
- Cut the cereal treats in half down the middle and then down the center lengthwise. Cut each quarter into thirds creating rectangle pieces. If desired trim the corners off of the rectangles to create a popsicle shape.
- Press a popsicle stick into the bottom of all of the rice krispie treats.
- The decorating process can be messy, so cover the table with parchment paper before you start.
- Use either a double boiler or the microwave to melt the chocolate to coat the treats. If using a double boiler, heat the candy melts until they are melted and spreadable consistency. If using a microwave put the melts in a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after each, until is is smooth and spreadable.
- Dip the top of each popsicle into your candy melts. You can also use a spoon or spatula to spread the chocolate. If you want to dip more of the popsicle put the candy melts in a tall glass.
- Lay the dipped popsicles on your prepared table to cool.
- You can drizzle extra chocolate on top of the coated popsicles. Or you can put the remaining melted chocolate in a piping bag or ziploc bag, cut off the tip and drizzle. Then top them with sprinkles while the chocolate is still soft.
Notes
- If your melted chocolate is too thick you can add a little of shortening or coconut oil to make it more spreadable. If you are using chocolate chips instead of candy melts you will probably want to add coconut oil. Add about 1 teaspoons per cup after the chocolate is melted and stir. Add a little at a time until you get a creamy and smooth consistency.
- Don't try to substitute paper straws for the popsicle sticks, they aren't sturdy enough to push into the treats.
