What you’ll need:
✔️spatula
✔️clean mixing bowls
✔️pot
✔️stove
✔️ice cream scoop
✔️parchment paper
✔️kitchen scale or measuring cups
✔️baking tray or plate(somewhere to lay treats)
✔️spoons
✔️small food grade painting brush
✔️gloves (if you don’t want to get too messy)
Ingredients:
✔️500g marshmallows
✔️115g butter or 1/2 cup
✔️250g Rice Krispie cereal or about 5 1/2 cups
✔️200g bag of Chipits Christmas chips(not necessary)
To decorate :
✔️250g white chocolate
✔️mini Reese’s pieces
✔️food colouring of choice
✔️good grade gold dust
What to do:
Measure out all of your ingredients. Throw the butter into the pot (this may get messy once you begin to stir in the Rice Krispies so I recommend a medium pot that is taller) and on medium heat allow it to melt completely. Next throw in the marshmallows and stir with a spatula coating entirely with butter. Give it a stir every 30 seconds until melted completely. Now take it off of the heat and throw in the Rice Krispie cereal and begin to fold in all of the marshmallows. You want to ensure all of the cereal is completely covered in the marshmallows. Now if you’d like, go ahead and throw in the chipits for some extra fun! Fold those in. Now it’s time to get rolling! You’re going to spray your ice cream scoop with baking spray as well as your hands, this just makes sure that nothing is getting stuck. The less mess the better right ? Because we all know how messy baking gets. Now begin to scoop out your treats and start to roll the cereal to form balls. Doesn’t have to be perfect, we’re creating ornaments here, get creative! Now once all complete let sit. Now it’s time to grab your white chocolate, put it in a bowl over boiling water to melt. Once melted, take off of the stove and add whatever food colour you choose. Here I’m using Chef Master in tulip red. Once you have your colour of choice, using gloves grab the ball and put it in the chocolate, covering it. Or use a toothpick, stick it in the treat and begin to dunk in your chocolate until covered. If you’d like to paint the treats in gold just use a food grade dust. Use the gold dust to paint the Reese’s Pieces cups, add some chocolate to the bottom and place it on the Rice Krispie treat. Now once they are all set, it’s time to plate. There you have it, an easy treat, filled with lots of fun for the holiday season!
