For us, making holiday Rice Krispies treats has now become a tradition. We usually do the traditional shapes of the gingerbread man and the pine tree. I have a certain recipe ratio that I follow that makes it super easy for me to remember and I don't need to measure a thing.

Ingredients

  • Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal or
  • Kellogg's Cocoa Krispies cereal
  • 10 oz bag of marshmallows
  • stick of butter
  • food coloring (if desired)
  • cookie cutters
  • decorating items

how-to-make-rice-krispie-treatsI begin by melting the entire bag of marshmallows with the stick of butter. I like the have them melt at the same speed so I add the together at the same time. I stir occasionally until the marshmallow starts to liquefy and then I stir it constantly. Now is when you'll want to add your food coloring.

In a separate bowl, add your box of Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal or your Kellogg's Cocoa Krispies cereal. Pour the marshmallow mixture over and mix well. I like to grease my bowl and grease my rubber spatula so I can get all the goodness.

This process took me about 10 minutes from the time I poured to the time we cut. In the Kellogg's Cocoa Krispies cereal, I added brown food coloring and they seemed to be a lot more buttery in texture and flavor. This kind is my new favorite.

We then cut out circles, trees and gingerbread men out of our Rice Krispies mix and began to decorate. I used some colored sprinkles for the lights on the pine trees, I used red and black gel for the gingerbread men Rice Krispies. I found all the ingredients I needed for decorating in the bakery aisle at Target.holiday-rice-krispie-treats Now you have the most perfect Holiday Rice Krispie treats just in time for Christmas.
