Valentine’s Day Rice Krispie Treats

Because Kendrick loves Rice Krispie treats more than anything and spent a decent percentage of today shoveling snow out of our driveway, and because I am a huge nerd:

I made him a Valentine’s Day Rice Krispie Treat.

If, like me, you haven’t made these things in a couple of decades and need a refresher, here’s how you do it:

What You Do:

1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat.

2. Stir in mini marshmallows until melted (this is when you’d add a drop or two of food coloring, if you’re using it).

3. Remove from heat and stir in Rice Krispies, then pour into a greased pan. Add sprinkles, if using.

4. Press down with a buttered spatula or wax paper.

5. When cool, cut into squares (or heart shapes).
