We are huge fans of all things Star Wars but Chewbacca has always been my favorite.
We’ve gotten creative with this cinnamon Chewbacca ornament, this Chewbacca cake, an entire Chewbacca Christmas tree and this Chewbacca painted rock craft to name a few.
WHAT ARE RICE KRISPIE TREATS?
Rice krispie treats are primarily made of rice krispies cereal, melted butter and mini marshmallows. These Chewbacca treats are made even easier by simply using pre made cereal treats, dipping them in chocolate and then covering them in candy and sprinkles.
These Star Wars treats are so much fun for kids of all ages to make and enjoy.
I love how fun this rice krispie treat is to create! It’s perfect for those who love Star Wars as much as we do and would be great for a Star Wars themed party.

Ingredients:
- Six Original Rice Krispie Squares (or homemade)
- 6 oz Chocolate Candy Melts
- 2 Tbsp brown sprinkles
- 3 pieces of black licorice, cut in half
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
Tip: homemade rice krispie treats work just as well as store bought ones but using premade squares cuts out some of the work. Find the homemade recipe at the bottom of this post!
Directions:
- Create candy ammo belts using the black licorice and chocolate chips. Heat a plate in the microwave, press the chocolate chip to the plate to melt the bottom and then stick it to the licorice. Continue to create a row of white chocolate chips on each piece of licorice.
2. Unwrap the rice krispie treats. In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate wafers in the microwave at 15 second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is completely smooth. Dip the rice krispie square into the chocolate.
3. Place the treats on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
4. Cover the entire rice krispie with chocolate sprinkles.
5. Place a licorice belt onto each rice krispie square. Press the candy into the chocolate to be sure that it sticks.
6. Place the chocolate in the fridge and allow it to harden completely before serving.
TIPS FOR MAKING THESE CHEWBACCA TREATS:
- Use Wilton candy melts for best results, the wafer chocolate melts the best. Add one teaspoon of coconut oil to other melted chocolate chips to help them melt and pour better.
- Lay the chocolate covered treat on a parchment lined baking sheet for easy moving and transporting before the chocolate has hardened.
- Place the chocolate in the fridge or freezer to completely cool before serving.
- Store these yummy treats in a large freezer bag or airtight container for up to three months at room temperature. They can also be stored in the fridge to prevent the chocolate from melting.
