Description

These fun and colorful Valentine Rice Krispie Treats are the perfect sweet treat for celebrating love! With vibrant candy melts and a simple marshmallow base, they’re easy to make and perfect for sharing with friends, family, or that special someone.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 ounces mini marshmallows (1 bag)
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 6 cups Rice Krispie cereal
  • ½ cup white candy melts
  • ½ cup pink candy melts
  • ½ cup purple candy melts
  • ½ cup blue candy melts
  • ½ cup orange candy melts
  • ½ cup green candy melts
  • ½ cup yellow candy melts
  • Edible marker
  • 12 tablespoons shortening (if needed)

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly add the Rice Krispie cereal. Stir until evenly coated.
  • Press the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, using a spatula to gently flatten and pack the mixture.
  • Let the Rice Krispie treat mixture cool completely in the dish.
  • In separate microwave-safe bowls, melt each candy melt color (white, pink, purple, blue, orange, green, and yellow) in the microwave in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between. Add shortening if the melts are too thick.
  • Once the treats have cooled, drizzle each candy melt color over the Rice Krispie treats, creating colorful stripes or patterns.
  • Use an edible marker to draw hearts, initials, or messages on top of the treats if desired.
  • Let the candy coating harden before cutting the treats into squares or fun shapes with cookie cutters.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can adjust the colors of the candy melts to fit any occasion by switching up the colors.
  • If the candy melts are too thick, add a small amount of shortening to thin them out.
