Valentines Rice Krispie Treats

Hello Friends! I hope that you are enjoying the new year and taking time to do the things you love. In the spirit of time, I have chosen the word SIMPLIFY for the new year. This means I am truly simplifying things when possible. Today, it is all about a fun Valentines recipe idea.

One of my favorite things to make for a quick and easy dessert, is something made with cereal. I made these small batch Valentine’s rice Krispie treats as a perfect dessert for Valentine's Day. Like my Chex Valentine's mix, this is a festive Valentine's Day snack.

How To Make Valentine's Treats

  1. Making the treats are easy. All you do is melt the marshmallows and butter, add the cereal and then the chocolate candies.
  2. Then cut them into heart shapes.
  3. Decorate some with melted candy melts.
  4. They also look really cute in a treat bag as a fun Valentines Treat for friends. But be sure to let then set completely before putting in a bag.

Equipment

  • Heart shape mold
  • Ice Cream Molds,
  • Parchment Paper
  • Popsicle sticks
  • Silicon Melting pots for chocolate, optional

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 10 oz mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups rice cereal
  • 1 drop Pink gel food coloring
  • 12 oz Red candy melts
  • Sprinkles
  • Nonstick spray

Instructions
 

  • First, melt your candy melts at 30-second intervals until fully melted.
  • Pour chocolate into heart-shaped cavities making sure to get it completely up the sides.
  • Place in freezer for 10-15 min until set
  • While that's freezing make your rice cereal filling.
  • In a large microwave-safe bowl, add butter and marshmallows, heat on HIGH to 2.5-3 mins until melted.
  • Remove and stir until smooth. Add in 1-2 drops pink gel food coloring.
  • Stir well, then add in rice cereal and sprinkles. Stir to fully incorporate.
  • Remove from freezer and carefully add cereal mix to the molds, do not press too hard or the chocolate may
  • crack.
  • Cover the back with more chocolate.
  • Place back in the freezer for 7-9 mins
  • Carefully peel molds and remove the cake pops.
  • Place on parchment paper.
  • Melt the red candy melts in a piping bag on 30-sec increments.
  • Once melted let rest for 1-2 mins then cut a small hole in the tip of the piping bag and create zigzag, circles or
  • lined patterns.
  • Immediately add sprinkles.
  • Let rest for 10-15 mins before serving.
  • To make the non-chocolate hearts
  • Make the pink rice cereal mix as stated above. Pour into a pan lined with parchment (sprayed with non stick)
  • Let rest 10 mins, then remove from the pan (but still on parchment)
  • Use a 3 inch heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the shapes.
  • Drizzle melted chocolate over the top and top with sprinkles.
  • Let set completely for 15-20 mins before bagging.

Notes

Using silicon pots helps control waste and spillage. You can leave the chocolate inside until it's cool then peel it
out and save to use again
if bagging these are treats let rest 30 before placing them in a bag to avoid smudging.
Can be stored at room temperature 3-4 days
Spray your hands with non stick spray before pressing into molds or tray

    Well, you definitely had my family at mini marshmallows. And you had me at Valentine’s Day. It really is one of the best holidays for me. Every holiday has something special, with meaning and decorations and atmosphere. My favorite thing about Valentine’s Day is the pretty Food.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
