Krispie Pops



Now that Noah goes to school, I've already participated in two bake sales. Don't get me wrong, if you know me, I love to bake. However, I'm low on time lately so I really wanted something easy, fun and of course yummy. My baked item of choice? Classic Rice Krispie Treats, but with a twist. I made what I'm calling, Krispie Pops.
Original Recipie:
  • 6 cups of Rice Krispies
  • 40 Marshmallows (one bag of the standard size)
  • 3 tablespoons of butter or margarine
  1. Heat the butter/margarine with marshmallows in either in a large bowl in the microwave for 3 min or in a large saucepan until melted.
  2. Add the Rice Krispies, I suggest slowly (yeah made a mess on the floor with a bowl a bit too small).
  3. Stir until coated and add to a greased pan based on your desired thickness.
  4. Now, regular square-style treats are great but I wanted to shake it up and really wow those little 2 and 3-year old kiddos...
  5. After mixing the krispies into the bowl, I placed it lightly into a pan to let it cool a little so they would be easier to handle rather than stick to everything.
  6. Once cooled slightly, not too cool, I formed them into little balls about 1 1/2" diameters wide. I dipped the top of the ball in sugared sprinkles and let cool a bit more.
  7. Once all the balls were dipped and cooled, I added the stick and placed each one in a plastic treat bag and tied a ribbon.
I suggest grabbing the little treat bags that come with pre-cut ribbon and sticks from either the grocery store or Michael's. Makes life easy. Oh yeah, you get to scoop up whatever is left in that bowl. Purely for taste testing of course.
Happy Baking! xo Arica
