Easter Rice Krispie Treats

This project shouldn’t take too long to complete. However, this doesn’t mean that it is an easy recipe. Though it is worth all of the time and effort involved. Now, first of all, you will need to get some ingredients ready.
Course: Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons Butter or Margarine
  • 1 package 10 oz., about 40 regular Marshmallows OR 4 cups of miniature
  • Marshmallows
  • 12 plastic snap-apart 3x2-inch Easter eggs
  • 1/2 cup M&M's Chocolate Candies
  • 6 cups of Rice Krispies
  • Decorating gel or frosting optional

Method
 

  1. Clean all of the easter eggs and coat the inside with cooking spray. Set them aside.
  2. In a saucepan, melt margarine or butter over a very low flame. Add the marshmallows
    and stir them until they are completely melted. Remove from heat.
  3. If your saucepan is large enough for it, add the Rice Krispies in and stir until well
    coated. If your saucepan isn’t big enough, add the Rice Krispies to a bowl and pour
    the marshmallow mixture on top. Stir until covered.
  4. Using hands that are greased, press roughly ¼ of the mixture into each plastic half of
    the egg. Use your fingers to create a hollow center in each half.
  5. Once the eggs have set, remove them from the molds and place them on the wax
    paper.
  6. Place roughly six M&Ms in each egg half. Gently press the two halves together until
    they stick. You will have to use patience and keep pressing the molding around the
    seam.
