Easter Egg Rice Krispie Treats

Easter Egg Rice Krispie Treats are cheerful, no-bake goodies made with gooey marshmallows, crispy cereal, and a touch of pastel sprinkles. Fun to make and easy to shape, they’re perfect for spring parties or a kid-friendly kitchen project.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 package mini marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • ½ cup pastel sprinkles plus extra for decoration
  • Non-stick cooking spray for shaping

Instructions
 

  • Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large pot over low heat, melt the butter. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until smooth and melted. Remove from heat to prevent burning.
  • Mix in Cereal: Stir in the Rice Krispies cereal, making sure each piece is coated with the marshmallow mixture. The mixture will be sticky, so fold gently.
  • Add the Sprinkles: Fold in 1/2 cup of pastel sprinkles, mixing carefully to avoid smearing the colors.
  • Shape into Eggs: Lightly spray your hands with non-stick cooking spray. Scoop 1/4 cup of the mixture and shape it into an egg. Place on a parchment-lined tray.
  • Decorate: Press a few extra sprinkles onto the surface before they cool completely. Let them set for at least 20 minutes before serving.
