With Valentine’s Day just about a week away, I decided to get in the kitchen and put some of those boxes of Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Cereal to use in a fun little project I could do with my children. I’m sure you are all familiar with the popular Rice Krispies Treats, but instead of your traditional square treat, we decided to make Valentine’s Rice Krispies Treats.

These Valentine's Rice Krispies Treats are just perfect for the holiday of love. Dontcha' think?We made a batch of regular Rice Krispies treats and we also made a batch in pink, in honor of Valentine’s Day. We made big hearts and we made small hearts and then we decorated them to our hearts desire using melted milk chocolate, colored candy melts, and sprinkles.

These Valentine's Rice Krispies Treats are just perfect for the holiday of love. Dontcha' think?With as busy as we’ve been lately, it was a nice change of pace to enjoy a fun, family-friendly activity with my children. It really made me realize I need to let them help out more in the kitchen. Although things may be rushed and crazy, they really enjoy it and I need to make it happen more often.

    To get colored Rice Krispies Treats, use food coloring to color melted marshmallows before combining with Rice Krispies Cereal.

      Love this! Just showed it to my 3yo because she’s been dying to make rice krispies treats and she said, “I wanna make the sprinkle one with chocolate.”

      This is a fun idea. I think I will make these for my kids this Valentine’s Day. You could add a stick to the bottom and they could be a Krispie Pop.

      These are precious and I love how few ingredients there are (I measure the degree of difficulty based on the ingredient count I think!). We are gluten-free and it would easy to make them ‘gf’ too. Now I’m excited for Valentine’s Day!

      These are so cute! I’ve actually been craving rice crispies so this would be the perfect little cooking project while we are snowed in this weekend!
