WHAT ARE RICE KRISPIE TREATS?

Rice krispie treats are primarily made of rice krispies cereal, melted butter and mini marshmallows. These Halloween pops are made even easier by simply using pre made cereal treats, dipping them in chocolate and then covering them in candy and colorful sprinkles.

These holiday treats are so much fun for kids of all ages to make and take to a Halloween Party. They’d be great for monster themed events like this Monster Birthday Party too!

I love how silly this treat looks with just green candy melts and candy eyeballs! It can easily be adapted by simply using different colored chocolate.

Or try adding: a pretzel stick, orange food coloring dots, white chocolate stripes, smarties, black frosting hair, licorice for arms and more!

Ingredients:

Four Original Rice Krispie Squares (or homemade)
6 oz Green Candy Melts
1/2 cup candy eyeballs, various sizes
Eight, 4″ lollipop sticks (optional)

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:

1. Unwrap the rice krispie treats, cut them in half and place a lollipop stick into each one.

2. 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, coating it entirely.

3. Place the treats on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

4. Add candy eyeballs to the melted chocolate before it cools. Press the candy into the chocolate so that it really sticks.

5. Place the crispy treats in the fridge and allow the chocolate to harden completely before serving.

TIPS FOR MAKING THESE EASY HALLOWEEN 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.

Classic Rice Krispie Treats Recipe:

3 Tbsp butter
4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal

2. Add rice krispie cereal. Stir until the cereal mixture is well combined.
