Grinch Rice Krispies Treats
Grinch Rice Krispies Treats make the cutest holiday treat. These are made using a traditional Rice Krispies Treats recipe, green food coloring and topping with a red heart sprinkle. Watch your heart grow three sizes just making these!
Ingredients
- 4 Cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 4 Cups Mini Marshmallows
- 3 Tablespoons Butter unsalted
- ½ Teaspoon Green Gel Food Dye
- 6 Large Red Heart Sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place the butter and marshmallows in a medium bowl and microwave for 2 minutes or until the marshmallows begin to get puffy and grow.
- Remove them and stir. If there are still lumps, put them back in for 15 seconds at a time and stir until smooth.
- Add the green food dye (as much as you want until you reach your desired shade of green. I ended up using the entire container as I wanted mine really green) and stir until no streaks appear.
- Add in the rice krispies and mix until the cereal is fully coated with the green marshmallow mixture.
- Pour into the pan, spread even, and lightly pack it down.
- Leave to sit for about 2 hours at room temp, or in a cool room, or until set.
- Slice the treats into 6 even hunks and place a red heart at the upper right corner of each.
- Serve and Enjoy!
