Total time 

Prep time: 10 minutes

Total time: 10 minutes

Serves: 18

Ingredients

  • 31/2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 bag marshmallows
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 11/2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • Sprinkles

Directions 

  1. Melt butter over low heat in a large pot. Once melted stir in vanilla and add marshmallows. Continue stirring until marshmallows are completely melted. Remove from heat.
  2. Add in Rice Krispies cereal and stir until well coated.
  3. Butter your hands and press the mixture into an 8×8 non-stick pan. Add sprinkles to the top and press again lightly so the sprinkles stick.
  4. Once cooled, cut into a square (whatever size you would like) and set on wax paper.
  5. In a small bowl, melt chocolate chips in the microwave at 20-second intervals stirring each time until chocolate is completely melted. If the chocolate seems gloopy, add about 1 teaspoon of vegetable shortening until it becomes running. Dip Rice Krispie treats in chocolate, shaking off excess chocolate, then add sprinkles to the top.
  6. Let chocolate set up and serve.
