During the holiday season I end up spending quite a bit of my time in the kitchen whipping up tasty goodies for holiday get-togethers, classroom parties, and for family & friends.
Oftentimes, I like to get the kiddos involved whether it is just them helping to cut out the cookies, decorating them with sugars or sprinkles, or helping me give a classic treat a fun & festive twist for the holidays.
Rice Krispies Treats happen to be a year-round go-to sweet treat for my family and I. But for this holiday season, we decided to give them a sparkling makeover perfect for that next holiday party or get-together with these Sparkling Snowflake Rice Krispies Treats! :)
We started with the classic simple, 3 ingredient recipe for Rice Krispies treats, but transformed them into a sparkling winter wonderland treat with a snowflake cookie cutter, a little white chocolate, and some pretty sparkling sugars...
These Sparkling Snowflake Rice Krispies Treats are such a fun & pretty holiday twist on the classic Rice Krispies treats. They were fun to make together as a family, and even more fun to eat and enjoy together! :)

Classic Rice Krispies Treats get a winter wonderland makeover just in time for the holidays with these Sparkling Snowflake Rice Krispies Treats.
prep time: 15 min cook time: 10 min total time: 25 min
ingredients:
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 package (10 oz) JET-PUFFED Marshmallows
- 6 cups of Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup of white chocolate candy melts
- Various sparkling sugars
instructions:
How to make Sparkling Snowflake Rice Krispies Treats
- In large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
- Add the Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal. Stir until well coated.
- Turn the mixture onto a large piece of parchment paper that has been coated in cooking spray. Using a piece of waxed paper or parchment paper flatten the mixture into a sheet about 1 1/2 inches thick. Let it cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, use a large snowflake cookie cutter to cut the sheet of Rice Krispies Treats into snowflakes. You should be able to get at least 8-10 snowflake shaped treats from the batch depending on how large your cookie cutter is.
- Melt the candy melts according to the package directions. Brush the melted white chocolate onto each snowflake Rice Krispies treat with a small paint brush, and then quickly sprinkle with sparkling sugar before the coating sets.
- Allow the candy coating to harden and set.
- Serve immediately or within the first 1-2 days.
- Enjoy!
