Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispie Treats
The classic combination of crispy cereal and gooey marshmallows creates a nostalgic treat that's easy to make and delicious too.
10 Treats
Ingredients
- 6 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
- 4 tbsp Salted Butter
- 10 ounce bag Mini Marshmallows
- 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 12 ounce bag White Chocolate Chips
- Sprinkles
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt butter and marshmallows over low heat, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract.
- Add the cereal to the marshmallow mixture, stir to coat evenly.
- Spread cereal mixture in an even layer into a greased 13x9 inch pan and allow to cool.
- While the Rice Krispie treats cool, place white chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave chocolate chips about 1 minute or until fully melted.
- Carefully remove cooled treats from pan and place onto a cutting board. Cut out shapes with a heart shaped cookie cutter.
- Dip one side of the Rice Krispie hearts into the chocolate, place on parchment paper, then sprinkle with sprinkles.
- Allow chocolate to cool and harden before enjoying.
Notes
- Use fresh marshmallows for the best texture. Stale or hardened marshmallows can affect the gooey consistency of the treats.
- Large marshmallows can be used for this recipe as well, you'll need a 10 ounce bag.
- While the recipe calls for salted butter, feel free to use unsalted butter if that's what you have on hand.
- Create an even layer of Rice Krispies in the baking pan by spraying a rubber spatula with cooking spray or using a piece of wax paper. This simple trick ensures a smooth and uniform base before cutting out your heart shapes.
- Lightly grease the cookie cutter with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking when cutting out the heart shapes.
- Allow the treats to set in the refrigerator for a faster and firmer result. This also helps the white chocolate coating to harden, making them easier to handle.
