I started this little project with an idea that I had seen on pinterest. (I have recently joined and become totally obsessed with it!) They were rice krispie treats cut out in the shape of hearts and then they were dipped in chocolate.
I have done so many chocolate dipped treats lately that I thought that I would try making these but a little differently. Well lets just say that everything I did failed completely! Really! Nothing was working out for me. But in the end we had some really cute treats and my kids loved them!
So we started off making a batch of Rice Krispie Treats. The kids were “helping” and we ended up with a few extra marshmallows in our pan. No big deal I thought. That will just make them yummy and soft! While we waited for them to cool we colored some frosting pink.
So even though they didn’t work out as expected or planned they did end up being very yummy treats and the kids had so much fun!
Also on a side note, after we made these I was talking to a friend of mine and she has a daughter that has egg allergies just like my kids. She said that when her daughter goes to birthday parties she gets special treats to eat while everyone else eats cake. And what it actually is, is rice krispie treats frosted like the cake and cupcakes! I had never thought of this before! Such a quick and easy alternative for some of us that have to battle with certain kinds of allergies! I’m definitely going to be making these and taking them the next time my kids go to a birthday party.
